[GUI Plugin] Best Sellers - Book Catalogs plus Blurbs, Reviews and Series Finders

[sgmoore]

Thank you for this (and your other plugins).

A few requests/notes.

Screen-Size
Can you change this to remember the last screen-size (similar to the way CCR does)?

Top 100 not showing 100
"Amazon UK: Kindle eBooks — Top 100 Paid" and "Amazon UK: Kindle eBooks — Top 100 Free" only show 30 books. (Although "Independent Publishers: Top 40 Fiction" does show 40).

Standard Ebooks
"Browse" and any of the subjects I have looked at all work perfectly, but new Releases gives this error

https://standardebooks.org/feeds/rss/new-releases
No books were parsed from the fetched page. received 60,308 characters.

Additional urls

How much customisation has to be made for each URL from the same source? For example are all amazon pages in the same format? If so, it is possible for me to add my own sections/urls?

An example, if I go to https://www.amazon.co.uk/kindle-dbs/..._sf_tab_ebooks , there are links to various sections like 'New in Prime' which would be nice to see in your plugin.(I haven't posted the URL as it is extremely long and I'm not sure what it contains - it could be tied to my account.)

I'm a bit late to the party, but thank you for such a great plug-in.

Hi,
Just having some trouble with the plugin. no sources besides from the "watchlist" is showing up when opening the plugin window. If there's something I'm missing please let me know.

Could you please post some screenshots, and plugin/calibre version info?

For screenshots, use the 'Go Advanced' posting button when replying and click the clip icon to attach the images.

For system and calibre info, I suggest Calibre Config Reports.

[MiceAndMischief]

Hi, here are some screenshots of the plugin as well as the config report info. My calibre version is 7.6

Awesome, thanks for the screenshots. Please see if the attached version fixes both the sources not showing on Mint, and the 🔗 link symbol not being displayed on About tab.

And if you want to provide detailed feedback, please attach a log file upon running this command:

BS_DEBUG_ENABLED=1 calibre-debug -g

or

BS_DEBUG_ENABLED=1 calibre-debug -g > ~/calibre_debug.log 2>&1

[MiceAndMischief]

Hi, yes everything is working now!! please find attatched screenshots of everything working including the log file after running the requested command:
