[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

[Firewolf88]

Hi there, I'm having a small problem. For whatever reason FFF has stopped collecting additional/freeform tags on ao3 sometimes and I can't figure out why. I've tried telling it to re-get meta data from site, I've deleted and redownloaded the fic, and it just refuses to collect them in the metadata column. It may be a restricted viewing problem, or at least those are the ones I'm having a much harder time trying to get the tags off of. I have seemed to be able to get there by telling it to overwrite non restricted works, but it doesn't work for restricted ones and I'm not quite sure its 100% effective. I've tried always_login true and it didn't do anything. Is there some other line to add to personal.ini or setting that might do the trick?

On the AO3, uncheck the 'Hide additional tags (you can still choose to show them)' in the account settings.

[JimmXinu]

Agreed. If it happens when downloading 'logged in', that sounds like you've hidden those.

Whenever I download a fic from Fanfiction.net, it always ends up center justified. And I have:

add_to_keep_html_attrs:,style,title,align

in my personal.ini. Help please?

Here's my personal.ini:

## This is an example of what your personal configuration might look
## like.  Uncomment options by removing the '#' in front of them.

[defaults]
## [defaults] section applies to all formats and sites but may be
## overridden at several levels.  Example:

## [defaults]
## titlepage_entries: category,genre, status
## [www.whofic.com]
## # overrides defaults.
## titlepage_entries: category,genre, status,dateUpdated,rating
## [epub]
## # overrides defaults & site section
## titlepage_entries: category,genre, status,datePublished,dateUpdated,dateCreated
## [www.whofic.com:epub]
## # overrides defaults, site section & format section
## titlepage_entries: category,genre, status,datePublished
## [overrides]
## # overrides all other sections
## titlepage_entries: category

## Some sites also require the user to confirm they are adult for
## adult content.  Uncomment by removing '#' in front of is_adult.
is_adult:true

## Don't like the numbers at the start of chapter titles on some
## sites?  You can use strip_chapter_numbers to strip them off.  Just
## want to make them all look the same?  Strip them off, then add them
## back on with add_chapter_numbers.  Don't like the way it strips
## numbers or adds them back?  See chapter_title_strip_pattern and
## chapter_title_add_pattern.
strip_chapter_numbers:true
#add_chapter_numbers:true
#chapter_title_add_pattern:${number}- ${title}

## Add this to genre if there's more than one category.
#add_genre_when_multi_category: Crossover

## Some attributes cause problems for EBook readers.  By default,
## FanFicFare will remove all attributes except the ones specified
## from all tags.  (The only exception is that <img> tags will also
## keep src, alt and longdesc attributes.  data-orighref is used by
## internalize_text_links to preserve links when chapters are
## inserted.)
## Example: To add 'style', 'title' and 'align' to the list to keep,
## in your personal.ini [defaults] put:
add_to_keep_html_attrs:,style,title,align

[epub]
## include images from img tags in the body and summary of stories.
## Images will be converted to jpg for size if possible.  Images work
## in epub format only.  To get mobi or other format with images,
## download as epub and use Calibre to convert.
#include_images:true

## Quality level to use when converting images to jpg. Range is 0-100,
## reasonable values likely to be in the range 70-95.
jpg_quality: 95

## If not set, the summary will have all html stripped for safety.
## Both this and include_images must be true to get images in the
## summary.
#keep_summary_html:true

## If set, the first image found will be made the cover image.  If
## keep_summary_html is true, any images in summary will be before any
## in chapters.
#make_firstimage_cover:true

## Resize images down to width, height, preserving aspect ratio.
## Nook size, with margin.
#image_max_size: 1200, 1200

## Change image to grayscale, if graphics library allows, to save
## space.
#grayscale_images: false


## Most common, I expect will be using this to save username/passwords
## for different sites.  Here are a few examples.  See defaults.ini
## for the full list.

[archiveofourown.org]
## Some sites require login (or login for some rated stories) The
## program can prompt you, or you can save it in config.  In
## commandline version, this should go in your personal.ini, not
## defaults.ini.
username:XXXXXXXX
password:XXXXXXXX

## In order to get bookmarktags and bookmarksummary, you need to login
## all the time.  This defaults to off to save time and network
## traffic.  Requires valid AO3 username and password when true.
always_login:true

## archiveofourown.org stories allow chapters to be added out of
## order.  So the newest chapter may not be the last one.  FanFicFare update
## doesn't like that.  If do_update_hook is uncommented and set true,
## the adapter will discard all existing chapters from the newest one
## on when updating to enforce accurate chapters.
## Starting July 2015, FFF stores chapter URLs in the chapter files.
## Stories downloaded after that shouldn't need this setting anymore.
do_update_hook:false

[www.fanfiction.net]
## browser cache will only be used if use_browser_cache:true and ONLY
## for a few sites.  Requires a browser_cache_path set in [defaults].
use_browser_cache:true
use_browser_cache_only:true
skip_author_cover:true
open_pages_in_browser:true

[fictionmania.tv]
## Turns all space characters into "&nbsp" HTML entities to forcefully preserve
## formatting with spaces. Enabling this will blow up the filesize quite a bit
## and is probably not a good idea, unless you absolutely need the story
## formatting.
## Specific to fictionmania.tv
non_breaking_spaces:true

[www.fimfiction.net]
fail_on_password:XXXXXXXX

## fimfiction.net stories allow chapters to be added out of order. So
## the newest chapter may not be the last one.  FanFicFare update doesn't
## like that. If do_update_hook is uncommented and set true, the
## adapter will discard all existing chapters from the newest one on
## when updating to enforce accurate chapters.
do_update_hook:true

## fimfiction.net chapters can have author notes attached to them.
## Setting include_author_notes:true will include them with the
## chapter text.
include_author_notes:true

[www.royalroad.com]
## This option if uncommented, will put a box around the spoiler
## blocks with the original spoiler button text as a label using
## fieldset and legend HTML tags.  For a simple box, see the
## add_to_output_css example for [base_xenforoforum:epub].
#legend_spoilers:true

## royalroad.com chapters can have author notes attached to them.
## Setting include_author_notes:true will include them with the
## chapter text.
include_author_notes:true

## By default, FanFicFare will not update an existing EPUB that has
## more chapters than the story does on the source site.  When
## force_update_epub_always:true FFF will ignore that check when using
## 'Update EPUB Always' (plugin) or -U/--update-epub-always (CLI) and
## will discard chapters in the EPUB that are not listed on the source
## site anymore.
## This can be useful for authors that remove and/or replace chapters.
## Recommended to be set for individual stories or sites rather than
## under [defaults] or [epub].
#force_update_epub_always:true

[www.scribblehub.com]
## Scribble Hub chapters can include author's notes, news blocks, spoilers,
## and inline footnotes. We've traditionally included them all in the chapter
## text, but this allows you to customize which you include.  Copy this
## parameter to your personal.ini and list the ones you don't want.
exclude_notes:newsboxes,spoilers,footnotes

## Using cloudscraper can satisfy the first couple levels of
## Cloudflare bot-proofing, but not all levels.  Older versions of
## OpenSSL will also raise problems, so versions of Calibre older than
## v5 will probably fail.  Only a few sites are configured with
## use_cloudscraper:true by default, but it can be applied in other
## sites' ini sections.  user_agent setting is ignored when
## use_cloudscrape
use_cloudscraper:true

## number of seconds to sleep between calls to the story site.  May be
## useful if pulling large numbers of stories or if the site is slow.
## The actual sleep time used on each request is a random number
## between 0.5 and 1.5 times slow_down_sleep_time.
