[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

[MSWallack]

I just updated to the newest version. Unfortunately, when I run the plugin, after downloading the selected stories, the plugin causes Calibre to lock up. I've tried (and downloaded from two different sites) with the same result.

I downloaded the posted version through Calibre to be sure I was using the same zip, but I'm not seeing any issues.

Can you run Calibre in debug (under Calibre's Preferences dropdown), try again and post the debug log?

I have Calibre 6.19.1.

I tried but while I was trying to set up a few new downloads, I got the Win 10 version of a BSOD. It's taken the computer this long just to reboot. I suspect that whatever caused the BSOD may have been causing other apps to have issues. I'd do some more troubleshooting, but unfortunately I need to turn my focus back to work. I probably won't be back to FFF until next week. If I continue to have troubles, I'll run the debug and let you know what I find.

ngl, a BSOD (or similar) sounds like a system issue. Would check for nasties with MalwareBytes (you can use it alongside your regular a/v as long as realtime isn't enabled) and HDDScan/memtest.

Hello!
Would it be possible to set different custom column settings for different sites in personal.ini? Like a general setting in defaults and under overrides for the site under [name.com] the custom column settings for this specific site?
When I tried that, it didn't override the default settings.
Thanks!

Yes. I've done it for site settings and individual story sections.

Would check that section precedence isn't messing it up: https://github.com/JimmXinu/FanFicFa...ion-precedence

What is the date of #956? I can't figure out where to find an exact date (just "last week") and want to check which stories I may need to re-dl.

Yes, that's intended one of uses for site sections.

You need to check the "Allow custom_columns_settings from personal.ini to override" box in FFF Config's Custom Columns tab to use custom_columns_settings.

Hovering over the 'last week' link in "HowardJeng commented last week" gives me May 27.

That's when the issue was reported. Looking at the last updated dates on the fics lists, the one that was still good updated May 20 and the earliest 'bad' one was updated May 22.
