[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

Ah, silly. Also noticed I inverted one .* so maybe wrong results.

Request, if possible: Option to disable Count Pages for 'update metadata from site/column' mode. It slows things up when working with replace_metadatas and page-count is identical anyways.

[JimmXinu]

That's niche enough that I'm not going to add even more option clutter to the config dialog for it.

However, if several other people agree, I would be willing to skip Count Pages for ALL 'update metadata from site/column' updates.

[ownedbycats]

Yes, that works. Don't know any case where Count Pages needs to run on only update metadata.

I agree. I don't do it often, but when I do it's annoying to have it count pages unnecessarily.

Well, here's a new one on me. I was unable to update a story from AO3. The link is:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/58...ters/148756408.

Calibre asks me to log in (see attached screen capture). No matter how many times I do, I can't download. What's interesting is that story itself has a lock in front of its name (see the second screen capture). None of the others that I follow do. In the personal ini for the plugin, I do have my login information entered:

[archiveofourown.org]
username:XXX
password:XXX
is_adult:true
use_archive_transformativeworks_org:true

Any suggestions? The really annoying part is that I can read the story online and using AO3's show entire story option, I can download the updated story.

The lock icon indicates a story that is restricted to logged in users.

And as mentioned before, login doesn't work with use_archive_transformativeworks_org:true -- because login doesn't work on archive.transformativeworks.org.

Download AO3's epub, or use BrowserCache for that one would be my suggestions.

Thanks ... I must have missed that. My apologies. It seems I must enter the log in for every chapter ... so download from AO3 it is.

[JimmXinu]

BrowserCache -- when you are already logged in to AO3 -- works fine for me with that story.

Troubleshooting tip:
If you're getting a "NoneType' object is not subscriptable" error on storiesonline.net, go to a browser, log out, and log back in. If you see a reminder to renew message when you login, that's very likely what's gumming up the plugin. Either renew, or lower/disable the renewal reminder threshold in account settings.

Just dropping this for future users (or myself if I forget). Took me far longer than I'd like to admit to troubleshoot this one...

Updated to 4.44, getting 'totp' errors on Spacebattles and SuffientVelocity when attempting to update.

How do I configure or turn off Timed One Time Password(TOTP) for these sites?

[JimmXinu]

Do you have Two Factor Auth enabled on your SB/SV accounts?

You should only get that if you do and the story requires login or you have always_login:true.

Can you get a debug log? Restart Calibre in debug mode (Calibre Preferences dropdown) before trying again.

Debug Log attached.

Note I may have jumped the gun. It all worked in debug mode and normal mode. Only thing I can think of is I didn’t restart after updating. Apologies for wasting your time.

[JimmXinu]

I don't have an unrar utility handy. OTOH, if it worked, then the debug log isn't going to tell me anything.
