Hi! 2 quick questions

1. I was trying to download stories from wuxiaworld.com and got a "list index out of range" for this URL

https://www.wuxiaworld.com/novel/coiling-dragon-preview

2. I was trying to download a different set of stories (with the same author/url) and wanted two different copies of the same book. as the content inside was different.

The "Check for changed story URLs" option was what I want as I wanted two copies of the book (with different site URLs as the content is different inside). However, I did not want the popup for every duplicate as that greatly slows down the metadata retrieval process.

is there a faster way to allow same book author / title but with different story URLs? In the end, I just edited the relevant code in fff_plugin.py (the if prefs['checkforurlchange'] portion) to skip the popup and always add a new book.

Thanks :-)
