[GUI Plugin] Extract EPUB Metadata

[madame_newbie]

I got this to work and most of them can update the identifier tags, now I need to know if extracting the author's name possible?

I wish most scrapers use epub/mobi too but I think they tend to use TXT to save space.

Also I've tried converting the txt to epub but it shows me
"Story URL identifier: not recovered -- FanFicFare may not be able to pick an adapter for this book."

I was able to extract the author names from the Naruto samples you sent me, at least on the version attached here (already had made some changes from the prev version). Make sure “Update standard Calibre metadata” is enabled.

Converting these TXT files to EPUB afterward won’t help, unfortunately. What I meant was: if you have a choice when downloading, EPUB is generally a better option for preserving metadata. But if you already have TXT files no need to convert them for the sake of metadata, as you saw that might even make things worse.

OH MY GOD, YOU'RE A GOD! The metadata's fits where it needs to be! Thanks so much! I feel you on the epub thing, usually it's my preferred format but many of the fanfic archived in archived.org tend to be in text or pdf format. But this helps so much! Thank so much!
