[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

[ownedbycats]

Is there a way, maybe in longtext metadata column, to dfferentiate newly-downloaded fic from updated one after download?

If you use log page and save numWords, you could look at words_added. That's my general indicator for new download vs update--my words_added column.

I also I use this, but the only place it's useful is in logpage_entries because logpage automatically leaves out unchanged values except on overwrite, so this indicates overwrite always vs 'lots of fields changed':

add_to_extra_valid_entries:,fulldownload
include_in_fulldownload:title
fulldownload_label:New Download

add_to_replace_metadata:
 fulldownload=>^.*$=>Yes

I believe that is already addressed in the posted test version.

FWIW, I just did a download from webpage and it behaved properly.

Hello there.
Is it possible to get Ratings, SCore, Favorites from
Literotica?

On a side note: Can I see somewhere what additional fields there are per website?

The adapter for literotica collects these site specific entries:

extra_valid_entries:eroticatags,averrating
eroticatags_label:Erotica Tags
averrating_label:Average Rating

If you open an issue about adding additional metadata entries (with details about what and where they appear), I can call it to the addition of the dev who works on the adapter for literotica lately. (No promises they would be interested in doing it, tho.)

Look in defaults.ini and search for the site's section. Look at the extra_valid_entries setting.
