Restricted story, logged onto archiveofourown.gay in browser to get cahced pages. Then just from curiousity, disabled cache and tried again. It worked.

Not sure how logging in browser fixed it, or just weird timing. Might worth looking into.

I can only speculate that the correct pages weren't actually cached.

I don't recommend using both use_archiveofourown_gay and browser cache. I even added a note about that at the bottom of https://github.com/JimmXinu/FanFicFa...oblematicSites

Nope, sorry.

I wasn't using cache when I got the errors. I turned on cache to get the fic after 2 attempts downloading. Then I turned it back off afer succesful download and it was working after that.

Then I expect it was just the same error / blocking as regular site happening on archiveofourown.gay.

Honestly, I expected that to happen. And I will not be surprised if it eventually becomes just as bad as the main site.

Because I don't think we're seeing 'errors'. I think we're seeing 'blocking automated download'.

If happens again, I'll see if visiting the site in browser might fix something. It worked at the beginning of the ffnet issues before they went aggressive with blocking (and I don't think OTW will do that unless they're being actively DDoSed).

I just installed Koreader into my e-reader, can fanficfare also upload updated chapters to koreader or do I use a different plugin for this ala kobo utilities?

My experience with KOReader is that it opens and reads updated books with new chapters fine just by writing the new epub to the device.

However, it doesn't automatically update the cached metadata displayed in it's file browser, if any of that's changed.

The only reason I know anything about it is I've just this last week been switching to KOReader on Kobo. Due to all the extra steps necessary for Kobo's native software (aka Nickel), I decided to disable the KoboTouch and use the User Defined USB device instead. Some discussion over here.

Hey, not sure if this was brought up, but I've been getting "HTTP Error in FFF '403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: https://www.fimfiction.net/ajax/login'(403)" for every fimfiction story. I checked that my username/password were correct, is there anything more I can do to fix this?
Tested on https://www.fimfiction.net/story/523016/ and https://www.fimfiction.net/story/405121/

Edit: did some searching in the thread, the last mention of a similar issue was from february? Is there no solution besides using flaresolver?

My notes indicate that I've had to use flaresolverr to get fimfiction to work at all for a long time now.
