![]() Making it work for a few specific stories would be a doable project if someone really wanted to do it. Making it work as a general solution would be a remarkable PITA. Either way, it isn't really something I'm interested in doing. And I would need to be convinced to add it to the project even if somebody else did. |

It seems fanfiktion.de changed also to https
I´ve got a downloaded story ( http://www.fanfiktion.de/s/505f126500016f9206d00fa2/1 ) but every new story I´d like to download has now https ( https://www.fanfiktion.de/s/505f1265...ag-auf-Schalke ) and I have to manually delete the "s" to download. |

There's a story that I would like to convert to epub that is posted to tumblr http://docfuture.tumblr.com/post/111...-call-contents which I understand fanficfare can't support as there is no standard tumblr format for books.
I could easily write a script to scrape this book and put each chapter in a file. I could probably go on to work the book into a reasonable html book format and figure out the settings for Calibre to convert that to a reasonable epub, but would it be possible for fanficfare to have an adapter for some specified format on local disk to facilitate converting books like this that are not on a site that fanficfare directly supports but have a regular enough format that it can be scraped in a more manual process? Or is there already an adapter for locally stored books in some defined format? |

![]() FanFicFare has a fake site, test1.com, that I use to generate stories with different attributes without needing to hit anyone's site. The test1.com adapter has a teststory feature where you can construct whatever metadata you like with storyId >= 1000. And at one point, for my own purposes, I extended that feature to also have a 'chapter_urls' setting that will pull a page from a URL for each chapter (which can be a file:// URL) and look for a <blockquote> tag inside it. The blockquote will be changed to a div (because reasons), and it and everything inside it will used for the chapter text. personal.ini section: Spoiler:
Example chap01.html (Use UTF8 if encoding needed.): Spoiler:
Then, after setting personal.ini and creating the chapter files, give FanFicFare the story URL: http://test1.com?sid=1000 Warning: This is an existing undocumented feature. I have no issues with someone who can write their own page scrape scripts using it--something bugstomper specifically mentioned being able to do. But I'm not going to be interested in expending much energy on either enhancing or supporting it. It's a dev tool for my use. |

So those two aren't going to download correctly regardless. More generally: It's not uncommon for the web service to not work on stories with hundreds of chapters (those two have 700+ & 500+). There are limits and timeouts that apply. See FAQ. "Caliber does not create any file at all" is not a terribly useful problem report. In future, include any error messages and a description of what specifically happened. Ideally, you would also run calibre in debug mode (under calibre Preferences dropdown) to see any errors. With several hundred chapters, a download will often run for a really long time before finishing. Especially if you have a slow_down_sleep_time set. It's also possible that the site has started slowing or even blocking your requests if you've been downloading many and/or large stories. In that case, a slow_down_sleep_time setting will often help by spreading your requests out more over time. I don't know enough about wuxiaworld.com to know for sure. |

I am trying to get prequelHTML to be added to a custom column, but I can't get it to work.

I guess I can write something that generates all the chapter links and use it with your test site adapter or an adapter that I write. Or even override extractChapterAndMetadata to read all the chapters and then read all of them again in each call to getChapterText. Is that what would be necessary? Are there any adapters that do something similar whose code I can look at? Last edited by bugstomper; 06-11-2017 at 02:55 PM. |

Generally speaking, if a site doesn't have chapter lists available, I declare it unsupportable for being too far outside the accepted paradigm.
I vaguely recall somebody writing an adapter for a site like that, but I don't remember if I allowed it to be included, let alone what site it was... As for why, it's about updates. I assume that most users, like me, follow hundreds of in-progress stories. IMHO, updating existing ebooks with new chapters without downloading all the old ones again is just as important as downloading whole stories. |

In configure FFF under custom columns. When I select the column I want prequelHTML to go to, prequelHTML isn't an option that I can choose.
