Seeing as this plugin is pretty much defunct now, would it be a good idea to remove it from the index?

My Q&S plugin used to scrape a list of Series by Author, but fictiondb now uses Cloudflare and JavaScript to ensure that even with Kovid's Mechanize, I was not able to search for much via a query without having an account etc. They locked it down. Time to find another source.

I'm quite sorry and I will miss it but I understand your point. Thanks for all your work on it.

I, for one, am missing it terribly and have been waiting and hoping for an update. If it is possible, it would be greatly appreciated. I am not aware of another source that provides age information and rely on fictiondb.

Exclamation Can't install plugin

I'm sure I'm not the first to post about why this is broken (see attached output). I'm not a great python programmer, but this doesn't look very difficult to resolve.

If this plugin is currently not under active development, does anyone know where the source code is managed (probably GitHub, but I don't find a URL for it) and how to be added as a developer?

calibre, version 5.9.0
ERROR: Install plugin failed: A problem occurred while installing this plugin. This plugin will now be uninstalled. Please post the error message in details below into the forum thread for this plugin and restart calibre.

Read posts 91 and 92 of this thread. The plugin is dead because the site changed too much for the plugin to work. Because of this, it was never updating to install in Calibre 5.

That's a pity as it looked like a really useful utility. Thank you for letting me know.

So useful that no one noticed it wasn't working for five months.

And part of the reason it has not been updated for Python 3 because it had stopped working (due to web site changes) several months before and no one had noticed.

Users have definitely noticed, this was a unique resource. If there was a way to get it working again it would be so much appreciated.

I have searched extensively and I don't think there is an alternative that gives age level for books that can added to calibre.

I have been waiting to see if something happens, but miss it so much. If there is a way to do this, it would be incredibly helpful.

I have been wanting this plugin to work too, to the point where I will instal a much older version of Calibre Portable just to run it. I have been trying to figure out how to get the themes for the books in Fiction.db to be converted to a .csv and downloaed into Calibre. They're much better than the Genres from Goodreads.

Are you saying that worked? Because the reason the plugin stopped working was because the site changed. Unless they have changed back, or changed something else in how that works, then I wouldn't expect an older version of calibre to change anything.

No, I thought I could do it, because it seemed possible, I wrote too quickly...lol I am still trying to figure out how it would be possible.
