Using txt file as list and only saving as PDF (output file).

Post by ranko »

Hi there,

Love the new version, but theres a problem with file saving.

I save both a HTML and a .mobi (kindle), AND I'm using the download list option.

I select mobi from the drop down list, and set the ffdl going, after the first fic in the list is downlaoded, it moves onto the next (as it should) but the output file, changes itself back to PDF.

Whoch is not ideal :(

Any chance of a fix please.

EDIT: Oh, using the portable version too...

Hi,

that's a strange bug. Logically it's impossible that the program behaves like that. (Finally an interesting problem to solve.)

Please try the following steps:
- Close the program
- Open it again
- switch the format to mobi
- Download a SINGLE fanfiction
- Close the program
- Open it again
- Download your list

is that working?

Thanks, that worked.

No idea why it did not work the first few times I did it.... But it works, and I've got all my fanfics on my kindle now :D

Your a star, thanks :D

Any ideas, if theres plans to implement a checking function that will run through the external text file and only download updated fanfics?

I have the same issue as well but slightly different. After I download 1 fanfic and copy the url for a second one it has changed from mobi back to pdf. If I don't change it I wind up downloading things twice.

Any idea how to get it to stick to mobi format like it did before without closing the program between each download?

Thanks in advance!!!
