I've tried rebuilding the saved metadata column for old stories, but when I run the "update Calibre Metadata from Saved Metadata Column" almost everything I've added is deleted and I'm left with the following:
Code:
<div>
<p>Adapter_Classes: </p>
<ul><li id="adapter_classes">FanFictionNetSiteAdapter</li></ul>
<p>Authorhtml: </p>
<p id="authorHTML">Packaged: </p>

<p>Titlehtml: </p>
<p id="titleHTML">Downloader Version: </p>
<p id="version">FanFicFare v3.16.0</p>
<p><br></p></div>
The only thing still there is the Story URL and the Story ID number.
I've gone over this twice and can't spot any errors, I've even just added the info from another story and then run it and I'm still left with nothing. None of my columns is set to "New Only" and even if they were I don't think they're supposed to delete the info in the saved metadata column.
