So a plug in crashing should crash calibre.... okay, good to know. As an aside I did various searches for what I thought was relevant, sorry if they didn't meet with your requirements.

Stop being nasty.
Plugins are submitted and maintained by volunteers .
Sites change. Things change. Folk move on. Sometimes someone else steps forward to carry the ball because they use the PI AND can fix it.

Very shortly MORE PI will fall out when Kovid moves to Calibre 6.x.
BTW If you looked at the PI description in the index , this PI was originally developed back in the Calibre 0.x days

The pluigin still works if you don't try to manage it. I activated it just today and discovered a lot more tags coming in even though I never set it up.

Came across this plugin and wanted to use it. Since it didn't work properly I made a couple of quick fixes.

* Fixed xpath for shelf count - https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...8&postcount=25
* Fixed segfault when trying to configure plugin. Never used qt before, but it seems to work now.
* Bump version to 1.2.1.1. Hopefully the plugin will update automatically if the official version updates to 1.2.2+

Added a GitHub repo to keep track of changes if the author or anyone else wants them: https://github.com/snorrelo/goodreads_more_tags

[snorrelo]

* Fix Qt6 compatibility issues
* Remove support for Calibre < 5.0.0 and Qt4
* Bump version to 1.2.1.2. Hopefully it will update if the official version ever updates to 1.2.2+


Install/Update by downloading Goodreads.More.Tags.zip and load it by going to Preferences -> Plugins -> Load plugin from file

Hi

I'm having issues installing Goodreads More Tags plugin on Calibre portable.

calibre, version 7.19

When I try to install this plugin, I get ERROR message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre_plugins.goodreads_more_tags.config", line 12, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'Qt' from 'qt' (F:\CALIBRE\Calibre Portable\Calibre\app\bin\python-lib.bypy.frozen\qt\__init__.pyc)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt4'

Could somebody help me?
Thanks!

That PI has not been touched since 2020 Nov
It is way out of date, Calibre switched to PY5 years ago. Some folk had the skills to make abandoned (for whatever cause) PI, compatible.
Maybe some nice person will update it.
Meanwhile, you might Uninstall it so as to not trip errors. (Rightclick the plugin name in Get Plugins: installed: Remove Plugin
AFAIK this leaves the configuration (if any) for later use.

Go back a few posts and you'll see it was last touched July 14, 2022.

The version available through calibre is obsolete. There is a new version attached to post #36 of this thread. Download that and install it and see how it works. It would be good if someone who is using it can say that it works so that can be made the new version in the first post of this thread.

I confirm that the version on post #36 works.

Given a confirmation that it works, can someone (staff) please move it to the first post? Thanks.

OK it is now
DONE

I have a question that I hope it can be answered.

I've catalogued all the goodreads tags and I've mapped to all the repeating ones to each single tag and deleted ones that I don't use. Is there more efficient way to import them all into Goodreads More Tags Plugin? Instead of mapping them individually... Same as exporting them all... say if I wish to share it with a friend.

And what I get a new laptop/pc.. or I need to reinstall calibre... how to import them all? I will be facing this soon with a new laptop.

Mapping over 4k of Goodreads Tags, and adding them individually, the plugin starts to get very slow in loading and adding new ones.

So, if this sort of thing hasn't been done yet, for mass import and export to a cvs file or the like, will it ever be in the future updates to the plugin?

Kindest regards

A general answer to your second question:
BACKUP THE CONFIGURATION FOLDER (along with your Library),whenever you make a setting change. Most settings that apply across multiple libraries are stored there. Library specific ones are stored in the Library DB.
