Generating several files with every export

Hi,

Whenever I click at "Send all highlights of selected books", I will get several files. For example, for the book I am currently reading, I will get 6 different files. One file (with the latest highlights) gets the header, the other 5 files are highlights from previous highlighting working sessions. They are not clear-cut per day, so I assume they have to do with my previous (test) exports with your plugins.

The same happens when I use "Resend previously sent highlights". I get for every book numerous files. It works correctly if I change for my last highlighted book the date of the last highlights sent to the day before I did some highlighting.

Hopefully, this description of the wrong behavior gives you some clue where to look…

Other issues:
  • There is no automatic reminder in calibre that the plugin has a new version, as it is the case with other plugins.
  • It would be nice to have the version number of the plugin in a handy place (perhaps in the config window?)
  • You are right that (most) of the emojis work. But unfortunately, I have tested it with some they didn't work and still do not work, like ✏️ or 🙋🏻.
  • Whenever I open the configuration window, I cannot configure something and then send highlights. Cancel, OK of the small configuration window (Formating Options / Other Options) has the same effect: it closes everything, even the big window in the background. But this wrong behavior happens only when I have opened the "Formatting Options" or "Other Options" window immediate previously.

BTW: I have written an article about your plugin in my German blog: Calibre E-Books Workflow – Von Calibre zu Obsidian
