If you are really serious about where you purchased the ebook, why not create a custom column for where the purchase was made, perhaps adding in another column for price paid and method of payment. Though as someone who does not bother with tags and genre, I may not be the best person to discuss adding custom columns for additional metadata. |

I have been running into intermittent cloudflare issues myself but tbh, I don't have a great solution for this right now and I don't know if one will come up. I would suggest not doing bulk metadata searches because that seems to be problematic, but individual searches are very reliable from what I've seen.
Anyway, new version which includes some changes by nonJerry to improve support around the Japanese language and light novels. One thing to note is that it does use the "kobo" metadata field since Kobo has started issuing their own ids now (ref here). I don't expect this to interfere with any tags left over from the previous kobo metadata scraper. |

So I got suspicious, since I was trying to replace the Kobo Metadata plugin with several of the other common ones and found that none of them were working. I disabled my VPN, and now the plug-in works. I am assuming Cloudflare is blocking my VPN since it is a known shared IP. Which is annoying, because I didn't used to have to do this. But I recognize it's not the plugin's fault.

Found the issue - it was related to the plugin behaving badly when it can't find the ISBN. It should no longer crash with the latest version (1.13.1) but I'm overseas right now so I can't test it. This still won't load some fields like ISBN for non-English pages. If anyone else wants to go through and add support for other languages, feel free to raise a PR for that (like someone has done for Japanese already).
The comment is indeed meant to refer to the synopsis - this is because internally, Calibre refers to that box as the comment box. |

Hi NotSimone,
Just tested with the same book, description and other texts are ok. But the cover is coming from another book. I understand you did not fetch isbn due to some translation (does not know enough of git and python to make some "PR" and so on). But as in the initial calibre data the isbn is already here and the isbn first match the book why for the cover did it search with metadata and not "original calibre" ISBN ? Thx for all your work. nAhu logs in spoiler Spoiler:
