You mentioned problems with the metadata. Upon downloading, or rather trying to, the log gives an "HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error". The capters 1-53 seem to display normally on FH (54 does not show), but can't be grapped by FFF. Is there anyway to resolve this?
Every other story I tried downloaded just fine. |
That error is because fictionhunt.com is misreporting how many chapters it has in the metadata.
Virtually all the other sites gave a full list of chapters somewhere and FFF uses it for the chapter URLs (and counts them to determine numChapters).
fichunt does not; it only gives a partial numeric list that changes depending on how many chapters there are, and what chapter you're on. Rather than put in a bunch of conditional parsing for that, I chose to believe the metadata chapter number.
Given that I only expect people to use fichunt for stories deleted from ffnet, I don't expect that anyone will be regularly updating stories from fichunt. So for now the answer is to manually limit the download to the real number of chapters by using this for the story URL given to FFF:
http://fictionhunt.com/read/4838629/1[-53]
If you find more stories that are wrong about their chapter count, I'll reconsider the issue.
