I've found a problem with the Remove broken TOC entries in NCX file.
First thing, it doesn't fix the playOrder and leave things out of order. Second, FlightCrew is not liking things like </content> Incorrect according to FC Code:
<content src="OEBPS/Gaba_9780440335153_epub_qts_r1.htm"> </content> Code:
<content src="OEBPS/Gaba_9780440335153_epub_qts_r1.htm"/> Once all these are fixed, I'd expect FC to complain about the playOrder not being in sequential order due to the removal of any unused entries. |

As I mentioned in another thread, anything that FlightCrew or ePubFix reports has about a 0.1 priority in my opinion. If people report that the book doesn't actually work on their specific reader then fair enough, but FC spits out so much nonsense I ignore it. Likewise with play order. The latter I am more likely to fix sometime, but neither appear to be a priority in comparison to other things I am working on.

The other errors are probably due to a bug in FlightCrew. I'll report it over in the Sigil forum. |

I have to admit, I haven't read through all the posts to see if this has been requested, as I think it's fairly unique.
Can there be an option to alter the 100% height in the titlepage.xhtml to 99%. In a couple of s/w readers a scrollbar appears, and you need to page twice to go to next page, rather than the proper once. I know it's just a personal niggle and isn't high priority. Would be nice though . |

Well bu**er me, I just went through several of the previous reading software that I'd had installed (on my tablet) and none of them do it any longer.
I didn't mess with settings too much, which I did originally to get my preferred style (pretty vanilla, as epub should be displayed - no backgrounds or fancy fonts as defaults, just plain black text on white background and fonts/margins/lineheights as defined in epub.) etc. I do know Calibre' viewer *used* to do it, but hasn't for several weeks (I think since the paged mode was introduced) or maybe earlier. |

Hi! This is a very useful plugin, which is par for the course for kiwidude, thanks again for your valuable plugins
I see an issue which causes Sigil validation (and epubcheck) to fail. I'm not sure if it's a bug or a validation issue? Sigil says: Code:
The "role" attribute is not an allowed attribute of the <creator> element. Code:
<dc:creator xmlns:ns1="http://www.idpf.org/2007/opf" ns1:file-as="Author, The" role="aut">Author, The</dc:creator> The workaround is trivial, as changing it to ns1:role="aut" fixes it. Is this a bug or am I doing something strange? On a side note I'll chime in about the remove non dc:metadata option: while it's little hassle to run it twice, it's fairly counter-intuitive that it *doesn't* remove non dc:metadata if you also update metadata. I just do it in two passes, so it's no big issue at all, but I'd prefer the non dc removal to be run last |

@Man Eating Duck - IIRC there is no code in this plugin that manipulates the creator. It calls stock calibre code for updating the metadata like that. So I believe you will need to point that one towards Kovid if he doesn't spot it - it only happens when you tick the "Update metadata" box right?
Re the remove non dc:metadata option. Yeah I agree it isn't ideal how it works currently, but it isn't trivial to change which is why it was on the bottom of the priority list. This plugin basically does the following: - unzips the epub - applies all modifications except update metadata - rezips the epub - calls calibre code to update metadata that requires a zip So in order to move the non dc check, the epub has to be unzipped and rezipped a second time, which isn't "ideal". But if it is the only way to make the function useful then so be it, will take a look sometime since other features/functions of this plugin seem to have stabilised. |

@Man Eating Duck - off the top of my head I'm not sure if there are any other combinations of options that might conflict with doing that. For instance doing cover updates or something. Or maybe I was protecting myself against some future option which hasn't eventuated.
If we can't think of a flaw then I will make the same change. In which case I would move that "Remove non dc: metadata" option into the last group just below Update Metadata too I think. |
