Thank you all for the replies! I do indeed have Kobo Utilities. But when I do the above - say I have a WIP marked as finished in Kobo, when a new chapter comes in and I update it with new chapter, it's still marked as finished on Kobo. The "restore current bookmark" doesn't seem to work cos I see the Kobo reading location reads something like "OEBPS/title_page.xhtml#kobo.1.1" or OEBPS/cover.xhtml#kobo.1.1 which opens the book to the cover page. Is there any workaround to this other than manually setting it to the last page before I update the book?

That is something that happens- I have an action chain that changes the bookmark for me, so the newest chapter opens up when I click the book. Its a bit involved, however. Do you have a custom column set up for Kobo Utilities to record the Current reading location?

Yep I do!

Have an odd issue w/ SOL adapter (yeah, yeah.. your *FAVORITE* one..
For paid users, there is an option to pop-up a reminder when their account is XX (default 3 days, but I bumped mine to 30...) days before expiration/renewal.
During this time, FFF "breaks" as story access goes to an intermediate page during the notification timeframe.
There is a link to "renew now" or "remind later"(url = /sol-secure/user/later.php?refer= ORIGPATH).

<h3 class="c">Notification!</h3>
<h4 class="c">Your premier membership is going to expire in less than 30 days</h4>
<h4 class="c"><a href="https://storyroom.com/sol-secure/subscribe.php">Renew</a> &nbsp; &nbsp; <a href="https://storyroom.com/sol-secure/user/later.php?refer=%2Fn%2F11600%2Fpollyanna">Remind Me Later</a></h4>

I was trying to add checks for it within performLogin, but they did not trip.
The intermediate page only shows when "doExtractChapterUrlsAndMetadata" accesses an actual story URL...
I tried adding the "Your premier membership is going to expire" to list of errors in "needToLoginCheck", but this doesn't really alert user to *why* it failed..
Using web, clicking the remind later link then allows direct story accesses.
It appears that the "later.php" sets a 48h or so cookie (called "pena") that will allow story accesses without the intermediate page.

Is there a way - within Calibre plugin - to raise an exception/pop-up to the user and still allow the connection thru (by accessing the later.php and getting the cookie...)?

Or maybe access the "later.php" page, silently accept the cookie and then fail the job - and user can see the error message and then re-initiate?

I saw the TOTP code, but not sure this works with Calibre - and is also in login code, not chapter code..
