  • Will updating the plugin continue to work as I'm used to now that I've installed it as a zip file? Or should I do that manually? (I figure I'll find out eventually, but I would like to know now )
When test version was posted for something you asked for, I appreciate a post back reporting that it worked.

Each test version has a different 'micro' number in the major.minor.micro scheme, eg v4.31.6 is the sixth test version of v4.31. When I release v4.32.0 (usually at the start of each month) Calibre will prompt you to install it as normal.

(Presumably the same is true for work skins but I haven't found a story to test that). When there is no locked fic included in the job, there are no issues.

Is this a known problem? Is there anything I can do to circumvent it? (Besides changing my settings, that is).
Known issue.

From defaults.ini:
Spoiler:
Code:
[archiveofourown.org]
## Some sites require login (or login for some rated stories) The
## program can prompt you, or you can save it in config.  In
## commandline version, this should go in your personal.ini, not
## defaults.ini.
#username:YourName
#password:yourpassword

## Note that if 'Hide warnings' and/or 'Hide Additional Tags' are
## enabled in the account settings, the AO3 adapter will not be able
## to fetch them while logged-in.

## In order to get bookmarktags and bookmarksummary, you need to login
## all the time.  This defaults to off to save time and network
## traffic.  Requires valid AO3 username and password when true.
#always_login:false

The basic assumption is that if you hide warnings/add tags, you won't want them in your download, either. And for login-required stories the only way to get them would be to change your settings for you--which I don't want to do.
