If you set up a meta data colums this stores all the metadata collected from a site. If you're strugeling with some code and are trying to get it right it can come in handy. If I don't get the result I'm looking for in a certain column I emty it, change the code and use Update Calibre Metadata from saved Metadata Column. For one it's faster, but also it's frowned upon to hit the same site/story over and over again which could result your IP addres being blocked or you even banned from a site (or so I've been told).

No I did not, didn't have time this week to play around. I'll try again this weekend, but I'm getting so fed up ff.net issues that I'm thinking about abandoning it all together. Half the stories are crossposted on AO3 anyway.

You can ignore this, I use to have a rather large .ini file so it wanted a long line in the middle to easliy find where I wanted to go when scrolling through it. Since then I scrubbed the .ini file so it's kinda useless now, but I'm used to it.
