Thanks, I could indeed reduce the choices to just the one I liked.

Not sure what is going on, but apparently Ficwad is not working with FFF. I get the following for the log page when trying to update a story:

Error
Heart of the Warrior Book VII
madnesspersonified
'NoneType' object has no attribute 'find'
https://ficwad.com/story/94608

The story does exist.

Ficwad URLs worked fine back in April.

No changes were made to my personal.ini that I can remember (except maybe to stop the automatic opening of pages if needed, don't remember off hand if that was before or after the last time I checked ficwad)

Debug log:

JimmXinu · 08-05-2025, 09:47 AM

New Test Version Posted

2025-08-05
- Tweak a few defaults.ini settings.
- adapter_ficwadcom: Fix for site change.

defaults changes:

Code:

[novelfull.com]
## increase from 2
slow_down_sleep_time:5

[base_xenforoforum]
## commented out by default now
#add_to_extra_titlepage_entries:,tagsfromtitle,forumtags

[epub]
## defaults to false now.
#nook_img_fix:false

I apparently forgot to do a release at the first of the month.

I'll do it after this test version has had a little while.

Droewyn · 08-05-2025, 03:08 PM

When downloading fics from email, is there a way to pick up all of the series, but NOT any translations into other languages? I really like the series option, but having to go back and delete six translations for a single fic gets old.

What site is sending you email notices like that? Can you screen shot?

The answer is probably to use FFF's Reject feature, BTW.

ownedbycats · 08-05-2025, 06:33 PM

A feature request, if think good: 'Open Story in Browser' in menu. url identifier, or internal link if search inside is enabled.

My usecase would be binding to a keyboard shortcut to make checking for stories deleted from site less tedious.

JimmXinu · 08-05-2025, 06:48 PM

Have you tried:

Go to Calibre Preferences > Look & Feel > Book details

Include Identifiers(identifiers) in the "Select displayed metadata" list. Assuming you display the book details in your book list, you can one-click the Id which will appear as the site domain name.

ownedbycats · 08-05-2025, 06:53 PM

That's what I'm doing now. However my right hand is the one affected by the stroke so I have to stop for a break after only a few.

JimmXinu · 08-05-2025, 08:50 PM

FFF has the 'Get Story URLs from Selected Books' feature already (I hotkey that to 'L').

Adding something else special to them open them seems extremely niche...

As I recall, didn't you comment before about having a browser plugin to open a list of URLs?

Ah. I wondered if that might be the cause.

I'll have to see about giving the test version a test then.

In terms of default sleep timers, putting in a 5 second sleep timer for scribblehub is likely neccessary, in my experience, because that site does go heavy on the rate limiting otherwise.

I have mine set to 4, and it fails on about 1 in 40 connection attempts. I check around 10 at a time, with pauses between batches, and rarely have more than 2 or 3 per batch with new chapters.

New Version Released

Version 4.48.0 - 2025-08-07
- OTW/AO3 - change to 'need to login' text, accept both old and new and another string. #1229
- Improve error reporting for open_pages_in_browser_tries_limit #1231
- Tweak a few defaults.ini settings.
- adapter_ficwadcom: Fix for site change.
- scribblehub: slow_down_sleep_time:5 per user recommendation
- Update translations.

MidnightRose · Yesterday, 08:47 PM

There's one story that I follow where the author has a really annoying method of updating where the actual latest chapter is always the second to last, with the last chapter just has some disclaimer text. Is there any setting anywhere that can set just that story to download the modified chapters, or alternately set that specific story to re-download the whole book when updating? (Otherwise I'd just have to remember to do it manually when the story updates)
