The latest test version? I am using that. all that appears to do is move the modals to the end of the task when the report comes out. that still stops any other tasks running.

Am I missing another version that turns this off?

Thanks!

If you are talking about the "Proceed with updating your library?" dialog, that is something Calibre requires (or at least strongly suggests) for plugins updating metadata. It's not modal, you can do other stuff before telling it Yes/No.

Otherwise, I don't think you have latest test version of FFF.

That was a previously masked error related to adding tags specifically for IMAP downloads.

I won't be hugely surprised if more issues like this come to light.

In future, posting the error message helps considerably with troubleshooting.

Thanks! I wanted to wait till I got an error before posting (to confirm that it worked) but no errors yet.. will observe over the rest of the week.

*UPDATE* and an error triggered right after I posted this (one of those annoying chrome cache misses). no more popups! Thanks!

Hey JimmXinu, thanks for your work on this wonderful plugin.

I just wanted to let you know the latest version has been causing issues with updating stories as a batch. I like to update a bunch of stories at once, but now it's constantly showing a pop up if any story has an error. So I have to manually press "OK" on each and every pop up in order to progress the batch update.

Also it seems to be showing error messages for stories which did not have errors on my previous version (I think it was 2 updates old). It appears all the errors are happening on Questionable Questing, besides some errors for Royal Road deleted stories (which did show as an error on previous version, just no discrete pop up).

Here are the error messages of each type:

Moderator Notice

First error log removed by mod due to NSFW links.

Yeah, I found there was a code path where too many errors were being discarded.

The last release went a bit too far reporting them. The latest posted test version attempts to strike a better balance.

As for those errors themselves, the first appears to be missing login (use always_login:true) and for the second, a removed story.

FYI, MobileRead doesn't want NSFW links. I've removed your first error log for you.

[cantper]

Thanks. Is there a way to disable the error reporting pop ups? or to just show them on the final log accessible on the Calibre bottom right pop (Yes/No/View Log or something like that)?

Did you install the test version? That should do it. Link in my signature below.

I apologize if this has been asked already but is it possible to download fic in every format available, rather than choosing one output format? I know you can convert within Calibre but it'd be great to be able to just grab the .epub, .html and .pdf, especially in bulk.

No, FanFicFare only outputs to one format at a time. Nor can FFF output pdf.

What is your use case?

I highly recommend downloading to epub and converting to other formats as needed. That's what I do, and I use a Kindle with azw3 as my primary reader.

I would investigate using Action Chains to queue up conversions to different formats

Action Chains may be of some use here.

Yes, it does! Sorry, must have not seen this message before.
