any chance to add support for https://www.scribblehub.com/ ?

[DragoLord19d]

I've got a quick question about adding passwords to the personal ini. I'm tried to add Alt. History like this:


[https://www.alternatehistory.com/]
username:XXXXXXXX
password:XXXXXXXX

And like this

[www.alternatehistory.com/]
username:XXXXXXXX
password:XXXXXXXX

but all I get is the login popup, what am i doing wrong?

Just the domain name, no protocol or slashes:

[www.alternatehistory.com]
username:XXXXXXXX
password:XXXXXXXX

Are you sure that the copy you have in your library is from AO3 and not ffnet or another site? That's the only idea that comes to mind.

I discovered it was an issue with how the author uploaded it to AO3. When she uploaded the next chapter, it worked correctly. With the previous chapter, she somehow created an anthology version, which messed things up. It is fixed now.
Thanks!

Is there any way to strip "Authors notes" from the beginning or ending of posted chapters? They get on my nerves frankly, so I end up using the edit tool on Calibre to remove them. But when a new chapter comes out, all of my edits are overwritten with the new copy, restoring all the previously deleted Authors Notes.

From the plugin's defaults.ini:

## AO3 chapters can include several different types of notes.  We've
## traditionally included them all in the chapter text, but this allows
## you to customize which you include.  Copy this parameter to your
## personal.ini and list the ones you don't want.
exclude_notes:authorheadnotes,chaptersummary,chapterheadnotes,chapterfootnotes,authorfootnotes,inspiredlinks

Copy and edit as desired. Be sure you add that setting under your [archiveofourown.org] heading in personal.ini.

I know there is a way to make the first post in a forum thread the first chapter of a story (I can't remember how to do it right now though, and if I did I think it has an issue)... is there a way to do that but ONLY if the first post is NOT threadmarked? A few authors write a summary or story information on the first thread post but don't threadmark it, but I don't want to have duplicate first chapters on all the other stories where the first post IS threadmarked.

I hope that makes sense and that someone can help me. Thanks!

Forgive me, I'm not familiar with working with code. Do I copy everything you posted including the double pound sign, or just the last line, "exclude_notes:...."

Currently there is only always_include_first_post, which will prepend the first post to the chapter list. There's code to prevent always_include_first_post causing duplicate chapters when using links in a post, but not when using theadmarks. I don't remember if there's a specific reason why not.

Personally, I add story-specific settings to personal.ini in those cases. Example:

[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/heromakers-legacy-worm-au-original.7589/]
always_include_first_post:true
first_post_title:Index
always_reload_first_chapter:true

Lines starting with # are comments and can be copied or not as you please. The exclude_notes line is the important one and it must be after [archiveofourown.org] (you may need to add it) but before the next [] section header.

Oddly enough that was the exact story I was thinking about when I asked the question (given it was just updated), so thank you... Now to see if it works or if I've got no idea where to add that code.

Edit: worked like a charm! Thanks!

The adapter for royalroad.com converts HIATUS to In-Progress when adding/updating a fiction. Is there any way to prevent that and keep the hiatus status?

For most sites FFF only recognizes status values 'Completed' and 'In-Progress'--those are the only values that FFF treats special.

However, other sites do include other status values, so I don't mind adding 'Hiatus' for royalroad.com.

Users who don't want Hiatus can use replace_metadata to change Hiatus back to In-Progress.
