I followed the instructions to download the metadata...but whenever I click on F_Rating, I always get:

calibre, version 5.43.0
Database Update: Finished extracting rating from publisherfield
- for a total of 0 books

...no matter how many books I try.

I took a few screenshots...I hope this helps

Also, depending the the route I take to go get the metadata (from the Book Detail window, or from the window where we see all the books), I sometimes get this error

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I suspect I know why this happens. Goodreads ratings are based on the edition of the book. A book in Goodreads may have many, many editions and some of those editions are manually entered by various librarians with only slight changes that "they" feel make it different from other editions. IF Goodreads Rating should use THAT editon to get it's rating from there might be no ratings.

See attached - Note that it has the same ISBN Number for both books

EDIT: SOrry, but I just realized that this is not the same problem that was listed. alain@expweb.ca stated that this happens ALL the time, so I doubt that my reasoning is the explaination. However, I still might have a point in the ratings delivered
