It works really well if you have a long fic you can just walk away for 10 minutes or so and come back then add it to FFF.

Edit: Also works well for updates, if there's more than a couple pages. You open the interface, uncheck the first page you don't want, scroll down to the last page you don't want, hold shift and click on it. This would say remove Chapters 2-20 and leave whatever is after that. So if you haven't updated a story for a while, you don't have to download what you have again, just the pages you don't.

Thanks! I will go add it to Firefox and give it a whirl! Thankfully most of my reading these days is on AO3, but still!

It looks like whatever change was made to the RoyalRoad plugin in 4.54.0 has broken all downloads from that website. It now shows an error along the lines of "Nonetype has no attribute 'startswith'".

Broken in both 4.54.0 and latest test version, working in 4.53.0 after downgrading.

Edit: Using Calibre plugin, Windows 10

I'm not seeing that. Story URL? (SFW please)

I still haven't seen it happen, but I speculate that watani's problem comes from either the story cover image being smaller than cover_min_size, or in cover_exclusion_regexp.

I get the NoneType startswith issue on all RoyalRoad stories I had. Example: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/12...petent-history

Found two issues
Line 280 - logger.debug("stars:(%s)"%self.story.getMetadata(' stars'))
and then line 292 - if self.setCoverImage(url,cover_url.replace('/covers-full/', '/covers-large/'))[0].startswith("failedtoload"):

Not sure why either of them would be None, but I added extra None checks to the second (and commented out the first), and it worked.

Updated to latest test version and it seems like things are working again. I suspect it was Line 292 in the royalroad plugin as mentioned by fanfictioneer, which I've seen you've already fixed.

Edit: Since I noticed that royalroad was always downloading the low res version of the cover in the past, I had set FFF to globally never make covers for royalroad fics and instead I would manually download the high res cover for each new fic. This setting is probably why I encountered the issue and not you.
