I don't know what you are saying. It seems to be two things:
  1. The content server shows an error with invalid urls.
  2. That a goodreads url is used when an invalid url is entered in Pref / L&F / Book details.
The first we know. That is why I said what I said two posts back.

The second disagrees with the first, confuses me, and is not what I see. If in Prefs / L&F / Book details I put the following:
Click image for larger version Name: Clipboard01.jpg Views: 125 Size: 16.7 KB ID: 213667

Note that the URL is the text "do_nothing. Authors have the link "do_nothing", which shows in the tooltip. When I click on an author, no web page/tab/anything opens. Instead I get the following in my debug log:
Quote:
ShellExecute 'do_nothing' failed (error 2).
QDesktopServices:penUrl() failed for url: PyQt6.QtCore.QUrl('do_nothing')
I don't see anything related to goodreads.

What did you do?
