[GUI Plugin] Reading Goal

[ownedbycats]

Question:



Is there a way to change the date of the first 0% record other than manually tampering the JSON or removing and re-adding the book to the goal?

Yes. In the book list, change the date to the correct value (without changing the progress). Then, go to "Edit Goal > Show book records" and delete the old entry.

The new date doesn't appear as a separate record, and I can't delete the only entry.

I've just tested here:

1) Added a book to my reading goal on 07/23, with no progress
2) Today I changed the date to 07/25
3) Now, when I press 'Show records', I see both records there
4) Then, I can delete the 07/23 entry

Ah, it works for me now - there's a weird little UI quirk where the record displays in the same row as the book record which confused.

I ran into another weird glitch:



I added a #lastread of 2024-01-01 to several backlogged books. However, two specific books keep erroring. I tried removing them and re-adding them and noticed that it tried to add to 2023 instead.

The only odd thing I can think of is perhaps some timezone shenanigans as the other books don't have 00:00:00:



EDIT: It is the exact time. If I copy the date from a non-glitched book (which also includes the specific time information) it doesn't error.
