Since it's still working fine for me (and I assume others), and you didn't see the issue until having done a number of updates, I would speculate that you've bumped into a downloads/logins per time limit on the site.

How many downloads/updates had you done that day at the time?

Since it seems to be associated with your login, I doubt that changing network or using a VPN would help. I would hope it would work again in a few days.

More generally, are you using an FFF saved metadata column? Then you don't need to hit the server again for Calibre metadata updates. (Doesn't help with title page, etc changes in epub).

"bookmark data" is a bit vague. FFF collects the number of bookmarks a story has (bookmarks) for all stories. It also collects your personal bookmark info for a story (bookmarked, bookmarktags, bookmarksummary, bookmarkprivate, and bookmarkrec), but only if logged in--that's one of the uses for always_login.

None of these display by default, you can add them to titlepage_entries or logpage_entries to embed them in those pages, or use custom_columns_settings to populate them into custom columns.

A 'solution' for now, which I have 0 clue why it works, as I'm fairly sure this shouldn't work, was literally removing completely both #is_adult:true and #always_login:true (Just to be safe), as well as removing the # before the Username & Password lines.
This should not work one bit. These are works that literally require you log in. So for some reason doing this makes it so FFF can use my account?? Idk how. But just an update on the situation.

Didn't see your message before sending the previous one, and I did assume I might have reached the limit but it's been happening for the past 2~ days. As in more than 24 hours passed before I attempted to download again today (I.e the debug log from today)
I was doing a fair bit, but as I said it has probably been about 48h~ since

I’ll see in a few days if I add back the lines I removed if it causes any problems, in which case I’ll update you.

FFF saved metadata column, hmm if it’s not part of the more default stuff then the answer is no. I think I saw something about it, but couldn’t figure out how to set a custom column for that.
The metadata which I was attempting to update, and was only updating if I hit Override Always (Instead of just Update Clibre Metadata from WebPage) is indeed for the title page though, so I guess it’s not really relevant here.

Bookmark data refers to my bookmark summary/notes I added, as well as the bookmark tags
I attempted adding them to a custom column when I had the always log-in option turned on, but it didn’t seem to do anything


What I made under the other stuff in the custom_columns_settings was
bookmarktags=>#bookmarktags,r
bookmarksummary=>#bookmarksummary,r


I also did/still have them in my # extra_logpage_entries, part of this line of code;
Code:
# extra_logpage_entries:fandoms,freeformtags,freefromtags,ao3categories,comments,chapterstotal,kudos,hits,bookmarks,collections,byline,bookmarked,bookmarktags,bookmarksummary,bookmarkprivate,bookmarkrec,restricted,series00,series01,series02,series03

I will try putting it in the as well # extra_titlepage_entries once I attempt putting back the #always_login:true line in a few days

For now I guess it’s a moot point as I can’t check if it’ll work now or not, as I’d rather not risk it and finish updating the works beforehand, which will probably take a few days. When I’m done I’ll add the lines I removed/disabled and come back for help in this subject

I know, which is exactly why I am confused on how that 'solved' the problem. I do not understand it, but the changes I mentioned are the only ones I did.

I've never gotten locked out properly, and never for more than a few minutes. If you try to go to ao3 on your browser when it happens, what do you see? I get a blank page with just a line of text at the top about going to fast or something to that effect. I tend to keep my downloads from my bookmarks down to about 30 at a time and checking for updates at about 50 or 100? and it helps prevent that. It could also be on your ISP side, it sees you sending a bunch of requests and stops you. How big of a batch are you trying to do? Try doing smaller batches.

I can also walk you through setting up a testing library if you'd like. It's been a lifesaver and a time saver for me to be able to do that when I'm having a problem.

Having the # in front of your username and password meant that fff would never log into your account. Removing the pound means it can and I think then only does so for locked fics. As opposed to the always login true setting which means it always logged in. (Useful for downloading from your bookmarks pages when locked things would otherwise be hidden and mess with the pagination, for example.) If there's a # in front of a setting you are trying to use, it will not be used, its ignored entirely. The only thing you did that mattered was allowing it to login, the removal of the other settings didn't matter because they were already not in effect.




Question of my own: is there a way to download reviews/comments? (FFN+Ao3) I've had a friend of a friend reach out to me for help and I thought FFF could do it, am I just not finding the option in the wiki/settings or did I misremember? I beginning to think I've just misremembered.

The review/comments counts are collected, but not displayed by default, as reviews from ffnet and comments from AO3.

FFF doesn't collect the text of review/comments.

I think I’ve asked this before, but I finally got a new laptop with the ability to update to Calibre 7, so any limits running old versions may have caused will be gone. Is there a way to create a column that shows the number of words added in an update, or to have that appear on the title page or log page?

Yes! Well, mostly.

It only works on epub update, when you already had logfile enabled and recording numWords on the last prior download.

Then you can use words_added with custom_columns_settings (to populate a numeric column) and logpage_entries. But not with titlepage_entries. Because it's calculated by the log page code, which happens after the title page code.

Is it possible to configure fanficfare so it will assume that fanfiction.net.my.domain.com/ficbook.net.my.domain.com should be handled as fanfiction.net/ficbook.net?

Reason: it makes possible to workaround Cloudflare's protections and some kinds of local censorship via Cloudflare-workers-based proxy.

Not as configuration. You'd have to change the code.

FanFicFare disappeared and not working on update

Hi!

I have been using FFF for a while and I became dependent.

I updated my Calibre to 7.16 on my Debian Linux yesterday, and FFF disappeared from the tool bar, so I updated FFF too (I usually don't update regularly, can't remember what version I had before). Now I have FFF 4.37.0, but it is not shown on the tool bar anymore.
If I go Preferences > Plugins , I see FFF among the listed ones, if I select it and click "Costumize plugin" I get a "Yoou must restart Calibre before you can configure the FanFicFare plugin" message. But I did restart both Calibre and my whole laptop, and I still get that message.

All the additional info I can think of:
- if I use Preferences > Toolbar & Menus >Main toolbar , FFF is not shown anymore as an option to be added
- in my Calibre .config directory I see inside the folder plugin both a FanFicFare.zip file with the date of yesterday, and a FanFicFare folder with several files/folders inside

I had customized the plugin with some of my login accounts (AO3 for instance) and also to add specific Custom column fields when downloading from specific websites. Is this info lost?

Do you have any suggestion on how to fix this?

Thanks!!

There is an issue with Ubuntu and Debian packaged Calibre not working recently. My response is to use the official Calibre download.

(Near as I can tell, the problem is python3-urllib3_2.0.7 not requiring python3-requests-toolbelt? Users report success installing python3-requests-toolbelt or downgrading python3-urllib3 to 1.26.18.)

If you are using the official Calibre download, I want to know about.

Indeed installing python3-requests-toolbelt made FFF reappear in the toolbar and everything seems to be working normally again. Thanks!!

I am on a pure Debian system (not Ubuntu) and I am using the Calibre package from Debian not directly the official one.

Thanks so much, I use your plugin several times a day, and I really couldn't be thankful enough for it.

No errors but no pop for asking for the usual URLs. I can open up all the other options within it by clicking the arrow menu button but even from there if I navigate to 'Download from URLs', nothing launches. Just silent failing

I uninstalled the plugin and reinstalled it but it didn't fix it. So I thought I would leave it alone for a bit until a new version came out. Today, I updated both calibre and the plugin but it's still doing it so I'm at a bit of a loss now.
Not sure if it logs anywhere? I couldn't see anything in the settings about a log location.

Hope you can help, thanks!
Hey, sorry for the delay I didn't get a notification for the reply. I ran in debug mode as suggested but unfortunately I can see nothing significant error wise in the logs. Weirdly it does list that the plug in initialises twice though. Not sure if that is expected behaviour or not.
I've attached it either way
