Site specific metadata aren't available in the dropdowns in the Custom Columns tab. You have to use custom_columns_settings in personal.ini. That way it can be different for each site.

Example with comments quoted from plugin defaults.ini:

Spoiler:

## (Plugin Only) - You can also populate calibre custom columns with
## the site specific metadata using custom_columns_settings (but only
## if 'Allow custom_columns_settings from personal.ini' is checked in
## the plugin GUI config.)  There are three parts, the entry name,
## then the label of the calibre custom column, then (optionally) a
## 'mode'.  'r' to Replace any existing values, 'a' to Add to existing
## value (use with tag-like columns), and 'n' for setting on New books
## only.  (Default is 'r'.)
## Literal strings can be set into custom columns using double quotes.
## Each metadata=>column mapping must be on a separate line and each
## needs to have one space at the start of each line.

#custom_columns_settings:
# cliches=>#acolumn
# themes=>#bcolumn,a
# timeline=>#ccolumn,n
# "FanFiction"=>#collection

add_to_custom_columns_settings:
 averrating=>#numrating

However I would like to propose that
1. If the story has 3 or less chapters, take average.
2. If the story has 4 or more chapters, keep all chapter's ratings separate while creating the book title page, but take average for the 'averrating' column value. (If that's possible and not much of a burden for you).

Let's see out the average works out for a while first. I more than half expect to find out there are stories/chapters without ratings that will cause problems.

After I added the following lines in personal.ini

[literotica.com]
add_to_custom_columns_settings:
 averrating=>#lit_rating

(my custom column lookup name is #lit_rating)

I am getting errors for every download. ['Story' object has no attribute 'setDescription']
The problem persists even after removing those added lines from personal.ini
What happened?

Actually, I had to add the following lines for it to work,

custom_columns_settings:
averrating=>#lit_rating

But, inspecting further reveals that it's actually the new test version's problem.
Downloading multi-chapter stories from Literotica works, but if the story has single chapter it gives the error ['Story' object has no attribute 'setDescription'].
Fix it please..


On a different note, if the story title has ' / ' in it (e.g. Catwoman / Huntress: Eros Risen), the part after the ' / ' is discarded and only prints 'Catwoman' in the title.
Can something be done about that?

[JimmXinu]

(I dunno why, but apparently MR isn't sending me notices of new posts recently. )

The 'Story' object has no attribute 'setDescription' issue was my mistake.

- Fix adapter_literotica setDescription

As for title of "Catwoman" vs "Catwoman / Huntress: Eros Risen", you'd have to take it up with the author. Multi part stories on literotica take their title from the overall title, not the first chapter title. In this case, it comes from the line "Catwoman: 2 Part Series".

Thanks for the new test version.. it works well..

Also, thanks for clarifying the Catwoman issue..

2016-03-11
- Make HTTP 410 StoryDoesNotExist in tthfanfic.org, make conn fail trace debug, not error level.
- Allow a second kind of 'chapter missing' for portkey.org.
- Change fanfiction.mugglenet.com to base_efiction after site update.
- Hide user/pass in debug log, add 'View Safe personal.ini' option that also hides user/pass.
- Re-organize personal.ini config tab in plugin.

See attached for the changes to personal.ini config tab.

When I download from qoutev i noticed that the story status in calibre keeps saying in progress even if the story is completed. Also is there any way for the author to show up instead of it staying anonymous and to download the pictures that are in the chapters? I included a log and some screenshots for examples.

example urls:
https://www.quotev.com/story/5494719...o-Be-Forgotten

Part of those issues were already addressed, but apparently quotev.com made more changes again.

The new test version addresses problems with the author, status and favorites metadata.

It also adds a feature to include chapter specific images in the chapters when they aren't the same as the cover image. This part is a new feature that may be less than perfect--I only tested with the two story URLs agumon1123 provided.

Any chance that you could add http://www.wuxiaworld.com to the supported sites?
Thanks!

Hello Jim!
You were so kind as to make FFF add some extra information from some sites. Could you possibly extend this to include hpfandom, too?
Mostly, I would be interested in the (total) number of reviews, here is a sample story: example story
Thank you!

That site is not a very good candidate. The structure looks inconsistent (or at least more complex). Also, I'm not adding new sites these days unless they personally interest me or are easy to do--IE, variations on already supported sites.

However, I welcome code contributions from others to add new sites.

First off, I am a complete novice at this and anything I've learned has been through these forums and the Wiki, so my understanding of how this works is very limited.

I have two questions:

1 - Occasionally on AO3 someone will list a relationship but not include those characters in the character list.

This is one example I am currently banging my head over:
http://archiveofourown.org/works/6222439

The problem I am having with this is two-fold.
a) In these instances, I want to include those characters in my Characters column in Calibre. I've managed to split the relationship into two separate entries and both appear when I go to the Custom Columns tab, Characters entry and select Relationships, but I can't make them appear when I select Characters instead. Leaving that drop down box empty results in no data appearing at all.

Allow custom_columns_settings from personal.ini to override is selected.

b) I wish to have "Tenth Doctor" renamed to The Doctor.Tenth, but it does not work when splitting a relationship.

The relevant portions of my personal.ini:

[archiveofourown.org]
include_subject_tags: characters, status, fandoms, freeformtags, ships

[defaults]
add_to_extra_valid_entries:mycharacters,mytags,mys tatus
include_in_mycharacters:characters,ships
custom_columns_settings:
mycharacters=>#characters
replace_metadata:
ships=>(.*)[/&](.*)=>\1 \, \2
^Tenth Doctor$=>The Doctor.Tenth


2 - I'd like to remove one category if another one appears. In other words, if the freeformtags include "Alternate Universe.Human", I would like to remove the redundant tag "Alternate Universe" if it also exists.


Thank you all, I can't imagine where I'd be with this if I hadn't had your help up to this point.

You should have a leading comma(,) in add_to_extra_valid_entries, otherwise mycharacters will be falsely concatenated with whatever is before it. That, I believe, is why it isn't showing up in your custom column.

[defaults]
add_to_extra_valid_entries:,mycharacters,mytags,mystatus

You are splitting ships, when I suspect you mean to be splitting mycharacters:

[defaults]
...
replace_metadata:
 mycharacters=>(.*)[/&](.*)=>\1 \, \2
...

"Tenth Doctor" isn't becoming "The Doctor.Tenth" for you because you are looking for exactly "Tenth Doctor", which isn't going to match " Tenth Doctor " (note spaces added when you did the mycharacters split) or the Doctor part of "Tenth Doctor/Rose Tyler". Instead I suggest limiting it to mycharacters and ships only, and allowing for "The " in front of it so you don't end up with "The The Doctor.Tenth":

replace_metadata:
 ...
 mycharacters,ships=>(The )?Tenth Doctor=>The Doctor.Tenth

As for freeformtags "Alternate Universe.Human" vs "Alternate Universe", that's tricky. If you wanted to remove "Alternate Universe.Human" in favor of keeping "Alternate Universe" it would be easy. I can't find a AO3 story by searching for such a tag. Can you provide an example?

All changes together:

Spoiler:

[defaults]
add_to_extra_valid_entries:,mycharacters,mytags,mystatus
include_in_mycharacters:characters,ships

custom_columns_settings:
 mycharacters=>#characters
replace_metadata:
 mycharacters=>(.*)[/&](.*)=>\1 \, \2
 mycharacters,ships=>(The )?Tenth Doctor=>The Doctor.Tenth
