[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

[Tova]

[QUOTE=JimmXinu;4355013]Tova,

A few things unrelated to your question:

1. I've approved your post--new users need their posts approved for the first 10 or so--you don't need to try again, just be patient.
2. It works better to wrap ini sections in [code] instead of

   to preserve spacing etc.

   Long ini [code] sections should be further wrapped in [spoiler] tags.

Re: your question - I don't know anything about 'pocketbook'. Where does it get it's 'internal genre' from?

Oh sorry my bad I didn't know, will keep in mind for future posts =)

I think it takes everything that's in the "freeformtags" it imports from fanficfare, I tried around a bit and got it reduced to the tags from my original post (characters + pairings + some other random tags) but I can't figure out how to keep only the pairings for sorting.

I would guess that it's coming from subject tags, which also controls what goes in Calibre's Tags column.

Default is:

Spoiler:

## include_subject_tags: entries to make epub subjects and calibre tags
## lastupdate creates two tags: "Last Update Year/Month: %Y/%m" and "Last Update: %Y/%m/%d"
##
## By default, entries listed in include_subject_tags are used as
## lists, skipping any <entry>_LIST processing in
## replace_metadata/etc.  You can instead use <entry>_LIST in
## include_subject_tags to get the whole list as one string.
##
## You can also use <entry>.SPLIT to split each value in the entry on
## ',' for individual values.  .SPLIT was basically obsoleted by \,
## splitting, but may still be used in some users' config.  Can also
## be combined with _LIST as <entry>_LIST.SPLIT to get both
## <entry>_LIST processing in replace_metadata/etc *and* split by ','
include_subject_tags: extratags, genre, category, characters, ships, status

Hello,

I have updated my personal.ini with my AO3 username, password, and always_login:true. I did this by copying the whole AO3 section from default.ini into my personal.ini, perhaps that's where I went wrong? Something is not working because my private bookmarks and works that authors have restricted to logged-in users only are not showing up in calibre after I get story URLs from webpage. I'm sorry if I'm missing something obvious; I'm very new to all of this.

This plugin is amazing and such a lifesaver! Thank you so much for making it!!!

Best,

Hayley

I hope this is not too out of date (I'm using 3.48 because I'm on an ooooold Mac running 10.12.2 - I know, I know - but it's my last Mac and it still - mostly - works):

I'm trying to update my AO3 password in my personal.ini (stronger pw) and I'm getting the error msg:

You don't need the whole section, just the heading([archiveofourown.org]) and the lines you want to change.

First thing that comes to mind: did you uncomment them? IE, remove the leading '#' char from the user/pass/login lines?

Otherwise, I'd need to see it. There's a button for getting a 'safe' copy of personal.in without passwords. But see this recent post about posting personal.ini.

Two solutions:

1. Double up the % to %% to escape it.
2. Don't put % in your passwords.

Thanks Jimm! You (as always) rock!

Aha, it's that I didn't uncomment them! Sorry, I read that bit but I didn't understand what it meant/didn't process. Thank you so much!!!

I'm trying to add the following story to calibre: https://innread.com/novel/my-blood-m...hapter-40.html so I can get updates. I'm not up on all the politics but I did a search on duckduckgo of every place the story appears (and it's about a dozen) and all of them have been removed from fanfiction's list of supported sites at one time or another. If someone was stealing a story and posting it elsewhere I'd assume there would be one supported location of the story. Can someone clue me in?

[JimmXinu]

As you figured out, innread.com is not a site supported by FFF.

And this isn't an appropriate forum to ask for help finding specific stories. I would recommend forums/threads devoted to that genre/fandom.

FYI, FFF is supporting fewer translation / novel site for a few different reasons:

1. They tend to be more complex, to the point of being difficult or even effectively impossible to support in FFF.
2. I don't read these sites and don't have any interest in supporting them. There hasn't been a lot of interest from other developers either, in part because of 3:
3. I don't want to include sites that carry copyrighted material that might potentially cause legal issues. Here's an old discussion about it.

Added it to my ini with only the genre and ships tag and it works like a charm, now it only shows the tags on my kindle I wanted under genre =)
Thank you so much Jimm for the swift help!

Anybody use Firefox with Multi-Account Containers extension?

We just figured out over on github (#985) that it adds a parameter to browser cache keys that prevents FFF from reading Firefox browser cache if you are using a 'container' tab when loading ffnet pages.

Might explain some of the otherwise inexplicable browser cache failures we've seen.

[ownedbycats]

interesting - but not surprising, if the point of the extension is to sandbox the tabs. Do you think it can be fixed in FFF, or the advice is 'don't use container tabs'?
