Question:
Is it possible to tweak order_threadmarks_by_date, I am noticing a bug related to post/chapter order.
The issue:
Posts made the same date can sometimes get placed in the wrong order by FFF (base_xenforoforum, SpaceBattles).
Example:
https://forums.spacebattles.com/thre...insert.662488/
Code:
The order, as shown in the forum (added post date to 3 posts):
Prologue -- (Posted Jul 15, 2018 6:21 PM)
Chapter One
Chapter Two
Chapter Three
Chapter Four
Chapter Five -- (Posted Jul 16, 2018 2:29 AM)
Chapter Six -- (Posted Jul 17, 2018 4:06 AM)
The order, as shown within the epub:
Chapter Two
Chapter Three
Chapter Four
Chapter Five -- (Posted Jul 16, 2018 2:29 AM)
Prologue -- (Posted Jul 15, 2018 6:21 PM)
Chapter One
Chapter Six -- (Posted Jul 17, 2018 4:06 AM)
Further details:
Code:
[base_xenforoforum]
order_threadmarks_by_date:true
The relevant posts are threadmarked.
Wild Guesses:
Maybe base_xenforoforum forums at some point changed the layout of the post-date-time or something, in a way that was only obvious for stories were chapters were posted within a 24-hour-window (which shouldnt happen that often).
Maybe even then it only shows up in some rare instances (maybe the author threadmarked the chapter in a strange order, used/changed post titles etc).
Or maybe the issue is to simply use something like:
tweak order_threadmarks_by_date-hour-min-sec instead of
tweak order_threadmarks_by_date
Versions etc:
Calibre 5.23.0
FanFicFare 4.3.0
Trying to find the answer in the thread:
I couldn't find this issue being brought up before in the thread (though it is rather long, so I might have missed it).
I tried searching this thread for "order_threadmarks_by_date" but found nothing.
