Stuck in advanced mode of news recipe
Hi,
I somehow got stuck in the advanced mode of the news recipe window, and I don't find an answer to that problem in the manual; that's why I am here. I was working at my news feeds, adding new entries with rss-urls, then I clicked on the advanced mode, the window with the program code opened. Since then, I can't get back to the original window without program code! I'd like to change entries, add something, but I'm not used to write program code myself; I in fact cannot work in the advanced mode. When I reopen the window by "Add a custom news source" (or change one), then I can cklick on my single existing scheme to change it - and I'm back in the advanced mode, and I don't see any way to get to the simple mode. I hope I could explain my problem somehow understandable ... Thank you for any advice and help! P.S.: I installed a new version of calibre just this morning ... I hope my problem is not the result of a flaw in this new version. Last edited by reader0x77; 10-06-2017 at 08:36 AM. |

You cannot go back to simple mode. There is no reliable way to convert an advanced mode recipe into a simple mode recipe. You'll have to create a new recipe and re-add your feeds.

Thank you, kovidgoyal, for your information.
What I still do not understand: I didn't do anything in the advanced mode! I don't remember having changed anything there, just clicked on "advances mode" to realize that I couldn't use it and that I wanted to go back ... So I think it really should be possible to go back. Or did I unintentionally press the space bar or so without noticing it, then, of course, saving, while I was in the advanced mode? Hmmm... Anyway, I know now how I can fix the problem, but it will be some work ... Last edited by reader0x77; 10-06-2017 at 09:49 AM. |

If you click cancel it will take you back to basic mode the next time. If you click save it will not.

so, even if I didn't change a single bit, clicking in save will make impossible to go back to simple mode?
In that case there should be a warning before activating the advanced mode ... Anyway, thank you for creating and programming calibre! Its a unique program, there's nothing to compare, and I really like it, even if some features are a bit too advanced for normal users like me. Last edited by reader0x77; 10-06-2017 at 10:53 AM. |
