Hi,

Thank you for creating FFF.

I have encounter an issue when I tried to download from asianfanfic via epub format from calibre. (tried txt format and it works fine). The result came back as list index out of range. I'm already using the newest version plugin 4.5.10.

Apology in advance if I made a mistake, but below is part of the log from debug mode.

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "calibre_plugins.fanficfare_plugin.jobs", line 313, in do_download_for_worker

Thanks again.

ownedbycats,

You've helped me in the past. I need help again. I would like to try and download FlareSolverr, but like with everything, I don't understand I'm lost.

Can you give me step-by-step directions on how to do it. Things you've shown me in the past have worked.

Thank you.

asianfanfics.com changed their author URLs. This version fixes it.

Note that the site doesn't support the older author URLs anymore, so old author URLs for your older downloaded stories won't work. Story URLs are still the same.

Re: "Tweak XF tagsfromtitle in defaults.ini to not break &" -- this was what was causing occasional errors with Calibre generating covers from epub when there was a & in an XenForo title, for me at least.

Is there a way to tell FFF to download just a couple stories in a collection - I've been sent a list of 18 chapter URLs (on Ao3) to a collection that has over 150. I've found the 'ignore' chapters part of personal.ini, but would really rather not have to go get 130 URLs to tell it to ignore. Nor are they nicely all together in a range, they jump all over. Is there a way to configure it to as which chapters of an overall story to download? or to have an option that says download whole story from URL or just the chapter of the given URL?

I didn't see anything in personal.ini, but admit my eyes started to glaze over, no matter how many breaks I took.

Thanks

So you apparently mean chapters within a story (vs stories within a series) when you say 'stories in a collection'.

And it sounds like you've already found FFF's two mechanisms for limiting downloaded chapters--chapter range and ignore_chapter_url_list--and you don't like either.

In your case, I would suggest downloading the entire story and then using Calibre's Edit book tool to delete the chapters you don't want, or the EpubSplit plugin to make a new book containing only the chapters you do want.

When downloading from AO3 specifically, FFF, by default, downloads the entire story in one page request rather than by individual chapters to save network requests. So there's no performance hit from downloading all of it.

In theory, I could implement an inverse to ignore_chapter_url_list, some kind of 'only include list', but it would be extremely situational. New chapters added to the story would need to be manually added to the list before they could be downloaded. ignore_chapter_url_list at least includes new chapters by default.

It keeps saying error story does not exist on any fanfic

Already fixed in test version. You can either use the test version or wait for the next release in a few days.

Thanks, I thought it was probably that way, but figured it was worth asking in case I'd missed something. If the number of URLS to ignore was smaller than it is I'd have just done the ignore chapters thing. But not for over 100.

Hi, sorry to bother, again, and with https://wuxiaworldsite.com/ again, but is not working anymore .

Thanks, be well, Monica

FFF supports wuxiaworld.site and wuxiaworld.com, but not wuxiaworldsite.com.

However, wuxiaworldsite.com looks like it's an alias to wuxiaworld.site

If you can confirm that wuxiaworldsite.com and wuxiaworld.site are the same site (same stories and same login works), I'll change the adapter to accept both.

Or you can just use wuxiaworld.site instead.

Question: When an AO3 fic has multiple series, is there a way to get it to prioritize a specific one?

Author's order only.

Yeah, it seems they are the same site, I can log in at the same time in both of them.

Can you believe I never noticed there were two sites?? Sometimes I can be so clueless!!!

Thank you!! hugs!!
