I discovered while I was porting it to Python 3 that it did not get any results. At first, I thought it was errors n the changes, but when I tested the released version of the plugin with the released version of calibre, it failed in exactly the same way. There were several people in the calibre/Python 3 discussion who basically said they would not update to the Python 3 version of calibre until the plugin was ported, so I asked if it was working for any of them. I had no responses.

I think this stopped working at the end of April. That is based on when the last book I added to my library which has a FictionDB identifier. The book added on 25/04/2020 has the identifier, but, one added on 03/05/2020 does not. Nor do any added later than this.

This was a few weeks ago and haven't returned to it. That is partly due to time, and partly due to the fact I haven't worked out how to solve the problem I found (the site makes heavy use of redirects). And, as no-one seemed to have noticed the plugin had been broken for over five months, I haven't put any importance on working on it. I have been far to busy breaking other plugins.
