[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

What does the camoufox warmup option do?

[JimmXinu]

## Set do_camoufox_warmup:true to 'warmup' Camoufox on start (fetches
## common pages from a few common public sites).  Adds 15-30 seconds
## to first Camoufox fetch.  Because FanFicFare uses a singleton
## pattern to insure only one Camoufox instance runs per process, the
## first fetch to use Camoufox will determine if warmup is done or
## not.  If you need warmup, it will be most reliable to set it in
## [defaults] to apply to all sites you have use_camoufox:true.
#do_camoufox_warmup:false

Something for the trickier sites? I had no issues with ffnet.

Most of the time I'm on VPN, and while it doesn't seem to effect my fanfiction.net connection, it really tends to screw with RoyalRoad. The warm up option makes my RR connection works most of the time.

Hi, this is (I think) my first time posting here.

I just updated the plugin in Calibre so that I can download some fics. I am trying to download some from Teaspoon and from Fanfiction.net. However, I am encountering an issue when trying both.

For whofic, I am getting:
[WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified: 'F:\\Calibre Stuff\\Calibre Portable\\index'


And for FFN.net, I am getting:

HTTP Error in FFF '403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4194056/1/Goodnight'(403)

I am not sure what I need to do to fix either one of these issues. I don't recall having these issues before, but this is also the first time in months that I've been downloading from anything but AO3.

Any advice or help would be appreciated.

Okay, I have fixed the whofic issue, my browser cache path had changed by a few characters when I updated firefox last. I am still encountering the FFN issue, but I believe I know how to solve it. We will see.
