Beta Test Version Attached

2025-09-06
- Update for changes to Chrome Simple Cache.

The attached version addresses booster-t's Chrome cache issue on Mac.

It looks like the cache files are not filling a length field that they used to, leaving it all 0s. However, the appropriate length can be deduced from other fields.

I don't have any other systems that use Chrome Simple(as opposed to Block) cache, such as linux, so I haven't tested on any others.

Interesting. The version that is on the first page of the thread did not work and shows as v4.48.2 However, the version you posted above shows as v4.48.2 as well, but it works.

PS: Thanks for fixing this

[JimmXinu]

Yeah, I didn't bother bumping the version number for a beta test.

I'll post it as a proper test version tomorrow if nobody tries it and has problems.

I'm trying to download something from https://archive.transformativeworks.org but the specific link I'm using (it's rated mature - not for NSFW reasons - but I couldn't remember the policy regarding that so have not linked it here) is not working. In Calibre, when I try to add it, it's just saying "No valid story URLs entered"

I tried with this random one and it still didn't work, even after adding

use_archive_transformativeworks_org:true

and turning off always logged in, in case that was the issue.

Any suggestions?

To do so, we'd have to change the way we store collections from one metadata list to several separate entries like we do with series, series01, series02, (and series01Url, series01HTML), etc.

If I already have the separate entries for multiple series set up, would the collections thing work if I basically just copied it, but changed to collection, collection01, collection 02, (collection01Url, collection01HTML), etc. ?

I also have a separate column set up for collections and am adding the links to that in the book details so at least the information is stored in Calibre, but if the way above works (I admit I did try already but maybe did something wrong?) then that would be great! If not, I'll just stick to at least adding the metadata to Calibre if I can't have it in the epub

You might try turning the URL into Archiveofourown.org/ID string.
I just experimented - anything with the URL containing https://archive.transformativeworks.org fails with 'no valid story URL.
I try something from calibre where the link reads archiveofourown.org and things behave.

[JimmXinu]

FFF doesn't accept archive.transformativeworks.org for story URLs. You may use any of:
'archiveofourown.org',
'archiveofourown.com',
'archiveofourown.net',
'archiveofourown.gay',
'download.archiveofourown.org',
'download.archiveofourown.com',
'download.archiveofourown.net',
'ao3.org',

In all cases, FFF records the 'canonical' story URL with archiveofourown.org.

archive.transformativeworks.org is, to my knowledge, a mirror site instead of an alias. While struggling with AO3's issues, I implemented use_archive_transformativeworks_org to internally rewrite archiveofourown.org to archive.transformativeworks.org because it was having fewer problems.

Unfortunately, archive.transformativeworks.org is misconfigured and doesn't allow login, even in browser.

We then learned archiveofourown.gay was also a mirror, but does allow login, so I implemented use_archiveofourown_gay

See: https://github.com/JimmXinu/FanFicFa...s#mirror-sites

Short answer: Give FFF archiveofourown.org story URLs, set use_archiveofourown_gay:true if you're having problems.

Re:Collections: Nothing you do in personal.ini will make FFF record AO3 collection URLs. It would require code change.

There is one way: Copy Collections to series column:
