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.

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:
Code:
add_to_keep_html_attrs:,style,title,align Here's my personal.ini: Code:
## This is an example of what your personal configuration might look ## like. Uncomment options by removing the '#' in front of them.

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 browser_cache_path:C:\Users\Kawah\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\hdgtdnwa.default-release\cache2 browser_cache_age_limit:-1 ## Some attributes cause problems for EBook readers.

ffnet, for whatever reason, has an align="center" attribute on the chapter text containing tag. You don't normally see it, because ffnet also has CSS that overrides it. This isn't new, I remember seeing it years ago--chapters would appear centered until the CSS loads. So you can either remove 'align' from your add_to_keep_html_attrs setting, or add an output_css setting to override it. Something like: Code:
add_to_output_css: .storytext { text-align: left; } |

Side question, does the "Extra tags" option in the Configure FFF/Custom Columns setting mean these additional tags besides fandoms, relationships and characters? |

For AO3 stories, unless you've changed the extratags setting, it will only ever contain "FanFiction". |

Hi!
I noticed today that the fetching of metadata from ao3 is really slow today compared to yesterday, the downloading of the story itself takes about the same time. When I download a story with about 10 tags from ao3 the fetching of metadata takes at least a minute, with an anthology of 7 stories and each one about 10 tags took nearly 10 min. Has ao3 changed something from their end? Because I didn't update calibre or any plugins from yesterday to today, 2 restarts of my PC changed nothing, the setting of slow_down_sleep_time from 2 (my usual) to 0 also changed nothing and ao3 loads equally fast in my browser as before. |

What worked just now as a workaround: use_browser_cache:true use_browser_cache_only:true open_pages_in_browser:true add this under [archiveofourown.org] in personal.ini (just add # before the login data for ao3 if you added it in personal.ini) Then fetching metadata is timewise nearly back to normal. I still get Not Responding in the taskmanager, but it only appears for a few secs |

I'm seeing slow down also. Changing the user agent doesn't seem to help.
But it does work eventually. Let's keep an eye on it for now and see if it improves. Keep in mind that you can always download epubs directly from AO3, if nothing else. |

Now I can't open any ao3 page in browser and get the 503 error, so ao3 is probably having server problems and nothing on FFFs end can be done.
Maybe everything is back to normal in few hours |

The AO3 website connects but everytime I try to log in with Firefox, I get:

To continue the AO3 thread I am able to read with chrome and fanficfare was working yesterday. Today the error is
HTTPSConnectionPool(host='archiveofourown.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /works/34797880/navigate?view_adult=true (Caused by ReadTimeoutError("HTTPSConnectionPool(host='archiv eofourown.org', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=60.0)")) https://archiveofourown.org/works/34797880 This happens on any story I try. Hopefully, it is only temporary. If not maybe the above will provide a clue. |

I was just able to do a couple downloads on AO3 at normal speeds.
I'm not going to panic about just it. |
