FanFictionDownLoader Version 1.3.1
I'm again looking for some people to beta test the attached newest version before I put it out for everyone.
This version contains:
Adding Series support turned out to be easier than I expected and there's not been a lot of testing on this yet, so I rolled it into 1.3.1. (Look at the personal.ini config tab if you don't want the series column to update, but you do want other calibre Metadata updated.) Thanks, Jim Last edited by JimmXinu; 03-05-2012 at 03:34 PM.

The copy to custom column feature seems to work well with the stories I pulled from fanfiction.net. At first it did not appear to work with the rating setting, however I realized that the issue was that my custom column was using a "text, but with a fixed set of permitted values" field and I did not have all of the story ratings in my list. I created a new column of just text and it imported the rating just fine after that. |

And here I thought I'd have to fill out my custom columns manually from the data in the tags. I love this new feature. The series feature is nice too, at least for those sites that have series. It's too bad that FFN doesn't. Still, I am very pleased with this plugin.
Good work! |

Amazing work! Solved a number of things on my to do list .
I don't know if the actual site adapter is the problem, but fimfiction.net doesn't split "My Little Pony" off into Category and the genre tags off into the Genre section. And pardon me if this is a noob question , but can the progress windows be placed inside the jobs section instead? I have a large list of fanfics now that I regularly check for updates, and I can't go off and do something else in Calibre until the metadata downloading is finished. |

Glad you like it.

IMO, you should use the email notifications from the sites to inform you when your stories are updated. Using this to poll them all everyday seems rather wasteful to me and inflates the stories' hit counts. Jim |

New Version - archiveofourown.org
Version 1.3.2 - 30 Jan 2012
New site: archiveofourown.org -- Thanks for Ida Leter for implementing this. Change fimfiction.net to use genre instead of category. |

Thank-you for the fix . I wish I found this sooner , but I found another issue. I am not sure what is going on, but for my fimfiction.net fics that had updates in Jan, the year is set at 2011 instead of 2012. Not sure if the fimfiction forgot to roll over the year or not :P.

Somebody might want to suggest to the fimfic people that they add a year before Jun, when their oldest story is dated. |

@jackr - There's a new version, 1.3.3, that handles the fimfic dates better, but not perfectly. Now it assumes "this year", unless that date would be in the future, then it subtracts a year.
Until fimfiction.net adds the year, that's as good as it's going to get. |

Thanks for the update! I sent a request to the creator of fimfiction asking if a year could be added.

Any chance of getting any of the following sites supported?
http://www.fanficauthors.net/ http://www.hpfanficarchive.com/ http://thequidditchpitch.org/ http://www.phoenixsong.net/ http://restrictedsection.org/ http://www.mugglenet.com/ http://checkmated.com/ http://mvsfiction.com/ http://sugarquill.net/ ... or any documentation on how you go about creating a new site adapter? I can scrape web pages easily enough in C# or similar languages, but don't have much experience with Python. |
