Version 1.5.46 - 22 Jul 2012
Correct integration of grangerenchanted.com, hlfiction.net & nha.magical-worlds.us

Hey there! Loving all the new updates and site additions, but I'm having a problem with downloads from grangerenchanted.com. I am using version 1.5.46 and have restarted calibre. Added the appropriate age/login info, etc. Your help in determining if I've done something screwy would be appreciated!

The story is http://grangerenchanted.com/enchant/...4750&chapter=1

I get the basic "do you want to proceed" dialog with this:

Jim,

what should I put in personal.ini when I want to exclude characters, but need the pairing information?

JimmXinu · 07-23-2012, 12:28 PM

@Firedancer885 - I'm pretty sure we discussed this before--"pairing" is specific to only a few sites and got lumped together with "characters". So the short answer is: you can't.

This URL is working fine for me with user/pass from personal.ini or entered when prompted.

If you can run calibre in debug mode (calibre-debug -g) in a command line/prompt window, try the download again and post the output from the command line/prompt window that may help.

My only thought right now is that if you use a different skin than the default(Enchant, I think) that may make a difference.

Thanks

That was a darned good thought! I switched to the default skin, and it worked like a charm! (pun intended)

Thanks once again for a great tool!

I'm looking for a few brave, hearty souls to test the next version. Well, okay, maybe it isn't as bad as all that. It is a bit more dangerous than usual, though. Backups are recommended.

This is the first version to store its settings in the library db rather than a JSON file on disk.

The big advantages of this are:

Backing up the library backs up the plugin settings
Copying the library (with structure) copies the plugin settings
Using the same library from more than one place can share settings
This is 'The Future' of plugins! Or so I'm told. There's talk of concurrent calibre someday.

The disadvantage is that it's not backward compatible out of the box. If you need to back out to the pre-db version of FFDL, you'll need to hand edit your fanfictiondownloader_plugin.json file to re-enable the migrated settings.

Plus it requires a minimum of calibre 0.8.57.

Some of kiwidude's collection of fine plugins have already started using this new facility and I've cribbed how to do the basic get/set/view settings functionality from him. It's pretty straightforward. Any bugs you find in FFDL are all on me, though.

Hi.
I'm looking to add the number of chapters to the comments field.
I see that I can add in in as a custom column but can I add it to the comments field in addition to the information the plugin places there?
I would not like to lose the the summary that fanfictiondownloader places there.

Love the plug-in by the way.

Rich

JimmXinu · 07-25-2012, 01:13 PM

@richreads - Not really.

You might be able to do something with a calibre composite custom column and a chapters column + comments.

Has anybody been having problems with yourfanficion.com when I enter an HTTP I keep getting HTTP Error 403:Bad Behavior. I wander what happen it used to work just fine.

JimmXinu · 07-25-2012, 02:08 PM

@CyberCrisis - That problem was fixed in the last version(1.5.46). Make sure you have the latest and have restarted calibre.

Thanx for the suggestion - I'll play around with my options.

No longer loading stories from archiveofourown.org, fyi.
Edit: it has uploaded the stories, now. Just took 15 minutes. Never seen a lag like that before, strange!

Long stories and site delays can easily cause that. And please always include a story URL when reporting problems.
