Everybody,

I'm working on support for multiple authors per story.

I know about archiveofourown.org and wraithbait.com. But do any of the other sites allow it?

Thanks,

Jim

[JimmXinu]

BTW, I forgot to say: please include at least one example URL of a story with multiple authors for each site.

Thanks,

Jim

Found a bug with the dramione.org site adapter. Lines 231 and 235 replaces August with Auguth which generates the following error:

time data '1th Auguth 2011' does not match format '%dth %m %Y'

230:            if 'Published' in label:
231:                value=value.replace('st','th').replace('nd','th').replace('rd','th')
232:                self.story.setMetadata('datePublished', makeDate(stripHTML(value), self.dateformat))
            
234:            if 'Updated' in label:
235:                value=value.replace('st','th').replace('nd','th').replace('rd','th')
236:                self.story.setMetadata('dateUpdated', makeDate(stripHTML(value), self.dateformat))

Permission received, I sent a copy of the email to you in a PM. (I did not feel comfortable posting an outside email to the board.)

That's easy enough to fix. I don't think iatheia reaches for regexp nearly as readily as I do.

I've updated the test version on the earlier post. Give it a try.

(I'm trying to get it down to only doing one release a week except for major bugs.)

Try it out and see if a) it fixes that story and b) if it breaks any others.

Jim

Thank you very much It fixed the story. I'll be on the lookout for other problems.

I am going to assume same person is in charge of both of these?

Yes, they are owned by hte same person, the content is different.

@rlh3

Well, I have the working version of the adapter for the finestories.com, which should be available with the next update. The other one... I'd really rather not touch. It wouldn't be that hard to modify if you ever feel up to it, but, yeah.

Test version with multiple author support.

Currently multiple author supported for AO3, TtH and wraithbait.com. More will be added as we become aware that they use multiple author.

'Existing' check now looks for identifier url first, then title/author match. Declines to do title/author search when more than 100 authors.

Give it a spin, see what you think.

Now includes fix for latest ffnet change, too.

Now includes new sites finestories.com, www.hpfanficarchive.com, svufiction.com, www.twilightarchives.com and www.wizardtales.net.

Now includes ability to call 'Count Pages' plugin on new/update. Requires Count Pages 1.6.0 or better.

Update for fix for finestories.com urls

I'd really like to hear back from some testers before pushing these changes out to everyone.

Hi!
First I just wanna say that I love this plug-in. It's the perfect way to backup all may favourite fanfics and send to kindle.

Anyway ... I don't know if you have noticed it yet, but with all the changes going on fanfiction.net, now when I download the metadata #characters I get the number of favs. Just to let you know.

Thanks for your work.

@doudda - ffnet continues to tweak things. Can you give an example URL of a story that has that problem?

[doudda]

I've been downloading some Stargate Atlantis stories. Here's an example:
