Proxy for url

Post by DukeBrymin »

One of the things I'd love to see is the re-addition of a proxy capability. One of my computers is on a proxied network, and I can't use the new FFDownloader there--I'm stuck with using 4.0.5.

Anyway, thanks for a great piece of software, whether or not we get proxy support.

Second that. Not sure about URL part, but being able to use proxy is usefull thing.

I for example can't read fics from hpfanficarchive.com other waythan through webproxy. I've tried different providers and different computers and nothing works. And 'coz FFDownloader can't use proxy, I can't save fics either.

Hi,

I don't have the time to implement the proxy feature with Configuration GUI and storage at the moment. I'll do it during summer.

For now I could offer you a version with the hardcoded proxy information in it.

If you send me the proxydata then I'll upload a version for you.

Considering most proxy don't last more than couple days, and those that not can become blacklisted.. no point. I'll wait till summer then.

Thanks for concern and your work on FFDonloader.

No worries. I can wait for this feature too. But thanks for getting it onto the future features list!
