Can no longer download from a website

[Angie]

Hello, I need a little help. I just read that you shouldn't mass update your stories a little too late since I am not very familiar with GitHub, and now I can no longer download new fanfictions or update old fanfictions from QuoteV. Is there any way I can fix this problem? Each time I try, I get an error saying: Story not found, or 1 story does not need an update. Any help would be much appreciated, thank you! :)

I'm getting the same error.

I'm seeing it too. Try adding this to personal.ini:

[quotev.com]
use_cloudscraper:true

It seems to work for me.

If it works for other people, I'll add it to defaults.ini.

I just tried that now I'm getting this error

HTTPSConnectionPool(host='www.quotev.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /story/12118106 (Caused by SSLError(SSLError(1, u'[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:727)'),))

CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED is usually an issue with the certificate store
that's being used on your computer. You can try updating your certifi
python package--assuming you are using CLI.

I gave it a shot and it worked for me! Thank you for the help! :)
