[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

Hi, I really love FFF but I've found that getting urls for individual books no longer works for Adult-FanFiction.org, if trying to acquire from an authors page, rather than broader categories. It used to work, but now it gives 'NoneType' has no lens().

Getting urls still works for non-author specific categories and I can still download an individual story.

can you give me some example URLs to work with? I'll take a look at it this evening to see what may have changed.

webnovel.com made some changes to the ToC today (or late last night) and no longer is functioning. I thought I'd drop that info. I'm reading a pretty long book so I'm not in any rush to get updates personally, but I doubt I'll be the only one that'll notice.

I'll look at it tonight, after I finish working.

Adult fanfiction has always had some weird ass urls that may change based on where you are clicking from. There's 2-3 portions between slashes that are completely irrelevant.

I've run into several stories in the past that didn't work properly until I changes the url. I'll see about throwing you some examples if I can find them. Generally they were older links but the story ID itself was the same, the link just didn't work. Unfortunately it was several months ago that I ran into the problem and I am not sure if I can find any of the problem stories. I'm not sure what DarkMagda ran into but it's probably not the same problem.

Hi, I wasn't sure at first if posting links was ok.

Ones like this still works for getting all story urls on page:
http://hp.adult-fanfiction.org/index.php?cat=838

But not this:
http://members.adult-fanfiction.org/...zone=hp&page=1

Links to NSFW material are forbidden by the forum rules. Best to PM them instead.

Ahh... you are not talking about getting the story... just the URLs on the page... with the --list (-l) or the --normalize-list (-n) options, right?

I'm not sure how to fix this, since that is not part of the adapter.

Maybe add the 'members' to the list of sites?

Jimm, can you help?

Ok... I've tested adding the 'members' "site" to the list in the adapter for the accepted domains and getSiteURLPattern, and it works...

You do have to quote the url, since there are ampersands in it, but it did get the list of stories on the page.

I am still having problems with pull requests, so, Jimm... just add the 'members.adult-fanfiction.org' to the getAcceptedDomains() function, then add the word 'members' in with the rest of the "sites" in the getSiteURLPattern() function, and it "should" work... I've only tested it on three authors....

First, I only saw an error for 'members.<domain>'. The other reported link ('hp.<domain>') worked fine for me.

Second, when I added some code to better handle the failure case, it turned out that there was already a higher level error handler that accounted for the problem and went on. IE, it was suddenly fixed. Change is pushed into github and will be in the next test version.

I can no longer download stories from FanFiction.net

I get the following error:

Is this a problem with my computer? or FanFicFare?

I can download just fine from Fanfiction.net

Probably your computer. See FAQ about it.

Did you try installing the latest test version? The one the post immediately above yours mentions containing updates for fimf changes?
