FYI, if you search the thread for ships2chars, that's a very similar thing that's been done before. Here's one version I found:

add_to_extra_valid_entries:,ships2chars

include_in_ships2chars:ships.NOREPL
# NOREPL prevents any ships patterns from being applied to ships2chars.

add_to_replace_metadata:
 ships2chars=>[ ]*/[ ]*=>/
 ships2chars=>[ ]*&[ ]*=>/
 ships2chars=>([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/(.+)=>\1\,\2\,\3\,\4
 ships2chars=>([^/]+)/([^/]+)/(.+)=>\1\,\2\,\3
 ships2chars=>([^/]+)/(.+)=>\1\,\2

include_in_characters:characters,ships2chars

Thanks!

I'm afraid fix not complete - for some stories same error (

Spoiler:

Couldn't find story [NSFW URL removed -- JimmXinu]

) still persists

Spoiler:

(last chapter of story posted here #136 returns this error)

.

[JimmXinu]

I'm not seeing that problem. I was able to download the whole story.

It's easier to discuss NSFW sites on github: https://github.com/JimmXinu/FanFicFare/issues

If you want to open an issue and post a debug log here (Calibre Preferences drop down > Restart in Debug, then download again), I can look at it more. But right now, I don't have anything to work with.

Question: what would be the best way to bulk-check that all my in-progresses still exist on the sites (e.g. no "story not founds") without hammering the servers or individually checking every single one in a browser? I was thinking of setting the sleep time to something like 30 seconds and letting it run overnight...

[JimmXinu]

I have no specific advice on that. -- Okay, I guess I do--it's just mostly 'Don't'.

Personally, I have a certain number of old stories I recheck once or twice a year. These are mostly SB/SV stories that are old enough to not have threadmarks and are functionally abandoned. When I do that, I do batches of 20-25 and after a batch finishes, I wait 10-30 minutes to start another.

I don't ever try to do that with ffnet stories. I go manually check or attempt to update individual stories that I'm specifically interested in at the moment.

As we have seen, ffnet will escalate Cloudflare and/or block you if you generate 'too much' traffic.

[ownedbycats]

yes, probably doing it manually is best for FanFiction.net. Will be a bit annoying though. At least I can limit it to the stories that haven't been updated in a few months.

Getting this error when trying to download a new story even though I have the story open in my browser. Looks like it is just new stories from ff.net. My other stories updated just fine.

Anyone else getting this?

[JimmXinu]

I'm not. Just tested with that story and it worked fine.

Question:

I have an add_to_replace_metadata to differentiate a series from another using the same name:

add_to_replace_metadata:
## Differentiates series with same name
 series=>^.*$=>I Was Lost Without You (Antipode)&&seriesUrl=>https://archiveofourown\.org/series/1937521

For the modified series, this messes up the series index (on the title page it doesn't appear, and the Calibre metadata is all 1s). Is this a fixable thing, either by user or something in the code?

EDIT: I also moved it to replace_metadata and it had the same effect.

[JimmXinu]

That's because the series entry contains the number and you are removing it.

Something like this should work, but I haven't tested to make sure the escaping is perfect:

 series=>^.*(\[\d+\])$=>I Was Lost Without You (Antipode) \1&&seriesUrl=>https://archiveofourown\.org/series/1937521

Well that just sucks. I don't get why it doesn't work for me. I guess I will just wait until the next story update. Everything else I download works.

[JimmXinu]

I'm assuming that you are already familiar with this page and have already tried to 'force reload' the page.

That worked.
