What's wrong with my plugins?

beecasso · 06-19-2013, 04:22 PM

Hello everyone in this wonderful forum that I like stalking out for hours at a time to soak up information. You guys are bloody brilliant!
Now me, I've been using calibre for a while - though, I've only been scratching at the surface. So, be gentle, please.

My problem is that I can't configure a couple or of my plugins, as in: the drop down menus either show no options available or don't let me fill anything in, or I can't add custom whatever have you. It's the worst with "count pages" where basically" nothing goes, but it also happens with fanfiction downloader, where it's just custom columns, methinks.

I don't know how long this problem has been existing, as I'm not really a heavy calibre user (though I'd like to be one). But. Yesterday I updated to 0.9.35. and then all the plugin updates. And then nothing seemed to be going my way and I was ready to bite my desk.

So. Tell me (nicely) how dumb I am and how it's something completely obvious that I am missing. Yeah?
Thank you.

@beecasso - have you tried uninstalling one of the troublesome plugins , and then reinstalling and reconfiguring it.
