Not a bug or issue, just a question.

Is there a way to make FFF include parts of titles that are in brackets? I won't link it since it's NSFW on QQ, but there's a new story called "(End)Bringing You A New Home!" and when you download it with FFF the story title on Calibre is just "Bringing You A New Home!" I've noticed this with other fics in the past, but generally I only found those fics once they were done or dead, so I didn't worry about it, but this is a new (and I assume) updating fic.

Thanks!

In theory, yes. But the defaults settings to create tags from titles are... complex.

Honestly, I just add a section to explicitly set the title when I run into cases like that:

Code:

add_to_replace_metadata:
 title=>^.*$=>Guided by the Light of a (Red) Cameron Star
 tagsfromtitle=>^ *Red *$=>

Hi!

So I'm trying to edit the title page, cuz I just really like how it looks when you download an AZW3 file from AO3. (Which I included an image of. And it has the summary on a separate page.)

Could I possible have some help recreating that? I attached the code below. I found some of Culterya's stuff again and used that as a basis. I've been at it for a few hours so any help would be appreciated.

Have you already found the Custom Output wiki page?
You won't be able to get all the tag links AO3 output has--FFF just doesn't record those.
You have have </body></html> in titlepage_entry, they should be in titlepage_end.
<dt> and <dd> tags should be in a <dl> tag. You can add <dl> to titlepage_start and </dl> to titlepage_end.
titlepage_start, titlepage_entry and titlepage_end should be under [epub], or [archiveofourown.org:epub]. (Depending on your settings, it may or may not actually matter.)
FFF doesn't have any way to split description into its own HTML file, but you can use HTML or CSS to tell the reader to page break there. And FFF will include items in titlepage_entries as-is when they don't match a metadata entry.

This works for me and is at least similar:

chatgpt is full of good ideas, but it has failed me, so i am back again. at the bottom is my full general ini, minus character-specific irrelevant replace_metadata lines, for reference.

the issue: i have set up a MultiSeries custom column, because the calibre default Series column/value field can only show one series. it seems to work, and the titlepages of each work also properly reflect each series [1] [2] etc. as defined by the rules i wrote in my ini. however, for some reason, i am incapable of making replace_metadata rules for multiseries. the works in question have two series tagged to them: one with a "- Recommended Reading Order" at the end of it. this is redundant, so i want to remove that series tag entirely.

i tried both of the below, and each seems to work when not being interfered with by stuff in my [defaults] ini:

Spoiler:

troubleshooting has led me to identify that the specific part of my ini that is causing my issue is something in these three lines:

Spoiler:

if i remove the above lines, everything works just fine. the titlepage & multiseries column both reflect only the one series tag, not the redundant one, which is what i'm going for. but not having these lines (especially the titlepage_entries) screws up the rest of my titlepage. if i add any combination of these back into the ini, it removes everything from the multiseries column entirely, or it keeps the multiseries column in calibre correct but shows both series' on the titlepage, or shows both series' tags on both the titlepage and in the multiseries column, etc. everything gets wonky.

suffice it to say i have tried 11 different iterations of the replace_metadata line in varying degrees of broadness v.s. specificity, deleting works entirely and then redownloading fresh, restarting calibre to make sure ini changes are applied and caches are cleared, manually clearing series & multiseries columns before updating to see what is being overwritten and how, removing & reapplying my entire [defaults] [epub] [html] & [archiveofourown.org] ini sections line by line to identify where things are going wrong, among other things. i cannot figure out a resolution, and both chatgpt & i are out of ideas. i'm sure it's something simple, it usually is, but i'm at a loss and can't find anything relevant even here in the forum for fanficfare.

any ideas of what i'm doing wrong, from anyone here?
