I finished this book at 12:27 a.m. on December 29th. In Reading Goal, this displays as 11:27 pm on December 28th.

Are you sure you finished 12:27 a.m.? That's odd. Your JSON says 03:27 a.m on Dec 29th, wich converts to 11:27 p.m. on Dec 28th if you have a -4h offset.

Calibre says 12:27 a.m.

Previously, I just ignored in-progress fanfics and just added them whenever the author added them. Now I want to try adding them to my goal, under certain circumtances.

Will the constantly increasing pagecount cause any issues? Particularly as percent-read might go up and down as more chapters are added.

This error happens when I try to update any book from 2023. No other years.

Random one, maybe something wrong with 2023 entries.

The records are not updated after they are created, so if the page count increases with time, those records would be off. But I don't think it would cause any other problems.

You have at least one book entry without the 'last_year_pages' key. I really don't know how it could happen, maybe when I was still changing the database structure. If you could find this book, then just add the missing key with a value of 0.

I suggest using regex to find the 'page_count' key just after the 'genre' key, since the 'last_year_pages' should be between then:

"genre": "(.*?)",
      "page_count"

Maybe accidentally from my JSON editing.

EDIT: It was.

Suggestion: A button to mark books in a challenge. Perhaps use text labels to appear as different colours to separate read and unfinished.

Check the version attached. You can mark all the books in the selected challenge. There is no option to change collors when marking books, but you can sort by reading percentage, after marking the books.

Unfortunately, sorting by percentage doesn't work when you read the book in a later year, why i suggested the labels.

As an alternative, in the 'Edit reading goal' dialog, you can:

1) In the 'View' dropdown menu, choose the challenge
2) Then you can use the 'Mark selected books' for each shelf

When you said about 'colours', I thought you were talking about the line colour. Now I see you meant the 'pin' colour, right?

Check this new test version. It marks all books in the challenge, but also use text labels to identify each shelf. This way you can select each shelf in the 'Mark books' menu.

Works good! But not on previous years.
