[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

That is what I was looking at as well!

So you don't have a solution at this time either?

I've posted a new test version (direct link) that will:

• Automatically strip leading/trailing whitespace when saving IMAP settings, and;
• Write IMAP server setting to debug log.

Please try that version: go look at the IMAP settings and 'OK' them and then post the debug log again (with the new output) if there's still a problem.

Ok, so I just tried to put in the test version of the plugin and I'm not sure if I did it right. I just copy/pasted the new .zip file to replace the old one and restarted Calibre, but all my old settings. At any rate, I'm still getting an error when attempting to pull books from email:

Also, I didn't see any setting on the Email Settings tab for a debug log.

First, use the plugin installer to make sure it gets in the right place. See this post and scroll down to How do I install a plugin manually?.

Second, after installing plugin and restarting calibre, go into FFF config then click OK. That will invoke the new code to strip leading/trailing spaces on IMAP settings. There is no IMAP debug 'setting'.

Third, run calibre in debug mode (on calibre Preferences menu or ctrl-shift-R). Then try Get Story URLs from Email. Quit calibre to get the debug log.

The debug log should include a line like this:

FFF:DEBUG:calibre_plugins.fanficfare_plugin.fanficfare.geturls(180):get_urls_from_imap srv:(imap.gmail.com)

That will tell us exactly what server setting is being used.

Here's the specific line you were talking about:

FFF:DEBUG:calibre_plugins.fanficfare_plugin.fanfic fare.geturls(180):get_urls_from_imap srv:(imap.google.com)

It looks to me as though it says the same thing.

And here's the full code that came out of debugging:

I agree. So we're at the same place we were at before--I don't know what your problem is, but it's not anything I can help you with. Sorry.

FYI, use [code] tags when posting debug logs (& ini file snippets). It's the '#' button on the 'Advanced' forum edit button bar.

I use Gmail and I haven't had any troubles at all. Have you followed JimmXinu's guide to the mail feature? (And remembered to say yes to a specific setting, but I can't remember which one in Gmail?) I think it has something to do with Imaps

Guys, I need help setting up my calibre for fanfic! I got a new laptop and gave my old one to my sister, uninstalling any programs that she won't use. I had - or thought I had - a notepad file with regexes and custom columns I used and how I set them up, but it's nowhere to be found. My FFF personal.ini is safe, but can't remember what I did to make calibre show AO3 ratings, archive warnings, fandoms and categories. Can someone help out or point me in the right direction? I'm terribly sorry to bother you

[Tanjamuse]

You need custom columns for that.

[citac]

@Tanjamuse, I know, and I had a .txt file where I wrote down how I made some of my colums, but I've lost that file (I'm actually just reading an old thread of yours, Custom column recommendations, in hope I will find advice applicable to me). Which columns should I make, and what column type to use??

[Tanjamuse]

These is my version of the columns you're looking for.

I don't have a screenshot for my warnings column at the moment.

For the Ratings and Fandom-columns you should be able to select the right info in the custom columns tab in FFF.

For the AO3 categories you need to have the following in your personal.ini

custom_columns_settings:
 ao3categories=>#categories

provided that you name your column the same way I did.

Thank you, that's extremely helpful for a start! Is there a place any of these instructions as pertaining to fanfic can be found so I don't spam this forum? I found FAQ for composite columns but I don't know if those will apply to me.

[Tanjamuse]

You can always PM me, I have acquired some knowledge of custom columns

[citac]

Good folks, I have another question I wasn't able to find on search: How do I change a full name of a fandom to a shorter one, e.g. Marvel Cinematic Universe to MCU? If I remember correctly, replace_metadata was used, yes? and then I'd use genre,category=>Marvel Cinematic Universe=>MCU in personal.ini??

(ETA sorry, I just tried searching again and I have several hits; I must have made a typo the first time)
