I have a small (I hope) feature request.

I have a mix of actual ebooks and empty placeholders in my libraries and I like to have page numbers for all of them and word counts for the ebooks, I have the page numbers set to download from Goodreads which works for everything, but it will error out if the word count option has a custom column selected and a placeholder book that has no formats is selected.

Code:
calibre, version 7.5.1
WARNING: Page/word/statistics warnings: Could not analyse some statistics in 1 of 1 books, for reasons shown in details below.

Unseelie - Ivelisse Housman (No convertible format found)
Could we get an option to ignore books with no formats when getting word counts rather than getting an error? At the moment I have to go in and out of the settings turning on and off the word count feature, it would be lovely to be able to just do all the books at once.

I shouldn't write posts before bed, I lost the trail of thought somewhere here and my post lost its meaning.

My problem is when you have selected a mix of placeholder and normal ebooks and the word count option has a custom column selected, it will skip the placeholder books entirely, it will update the word counts for the normal ebooks as BetterRed says, but it will skip the placeholder books, meaning it doesn't download the page numbers for them. I'd like it to download the page numbers for all the books and calculate the word counts for the normal ebooks.

Thank you, this and your other plugins are so incredibly useful!
