The only circumstance I can think of this would happen is if you're changing the OEBPS/log_page.xhtml file. Everything else should be replaced. Or maybe a full disk, but I'd expect to see errors from that.

So if I'm going to help, I'll need the exact details to try and isolate what's happening:
  1. What story URL are you using?
  2. What output format?
  3. Are you sure you're editing the same format file?
  4. Do you have FFF's 'Automatically Convert updates' feature on? Converting to what format? (It uses your Calibre Preferred output format setting.)
  5. What text in what file inside the ebook did you remove?
  6. Where did you change the author's name? It can be in an ebook more than one place.
  7. What are you using to check for the changes? Calibre's Viewer or something else?
  8. Are you sure you're looking at the same format FFF is writing?
  9. Are you sure you reopened the output format after overwriting?
1. The story itself hasn't mattered--I tried multiple stories from AO3 and FF.net to the same effect.
2. Epub
3. That feature is off
4. I deleted text of the story within the <div class="userstuff module"> tag
5. I changed the author's name in the Edit Metadata window
6. I used Calibre's Edit Book and Viewer to look for changes
7. There is only one format of the book - Epub
8. Yes

I've also restarted the program, the computer, and reinstalled the most recent test version.!

This is not a big deal though--I don't use this function often, and just wanted to let you know in case it was a widespread problem
