Hi!

I want to get the literotica´s category showing up somewhere in the metadata when using FFF.
As it is now the category (like sci-fi/nonhuman and so on) is nowhere to be found.

If i use firefox and print pages to pdf then import to calibre the category is shown last in the title/title_sort and i can then import a bunch at once then search for sci-fi and move them all to the author sci-fi.
Sure it is a manual step that adds time but it is pretty quick in the end and i use author as genre since that is what works best for me on my kobo auro h2 (tried shelf but they simply work very bad) and series does not sort or show up in a useful way.
I also have autopager so pages loads everything (works great).

One BIG problem with this is that double L is replaced with L and a space (irritating as hell) i have tried for a looooong time fixing this ligature (i assume) problem but nothing works.
I have however sort of fixed it using the addon Tranquility Reader and that solves the ligature problem BUT i have to browse to every open page and switch ´Tranquility on which takes time and is annoying (and no option even in about:config to set to auto on).

The other big problem is that if i merge epub´s the text have absolutely no margins on either side on my kobo (makes it harder to read) i have found one way of that solve this.
I have to use pdf to prints save only text and use a bunch of non default options when converting to epub BUT then i get 12 pages with one line at the top THEN the story starts (do i have to say that this is annoying as hell).
Almost fixed that using remove it permanently now it is only 5 pages cant remove any more or the story is gone sigh.

The two small problem is that print to pdf likes to hang now and then and in rare cases do not get all the shown page.


I have also tried a bunch of epub/mobi/pdf/txt/etc addons (in both firefox and chrome) but mostly they do not show the category anywhere in metadata.
The two or if it was three that DO show category (all does that last in the title) have problems getting the whole story 1 of 3 storys is cut of and even storys with only one page does this too.

I have fucking around with this for probably way over 100 hours and only have irritating options too use and now i stumbled on FFF that seems to work great for me with the no category exception.
For me i would probably not use FFF since the time it takes too check up on every story and manually put in the category is way more then my other crappy options.
I could save only one category at a time but that means having many "source pages" open at once and gets complicated/irritating, doing them one by one is out of the question i hate switcing back and fort between programs i rater use one prg for a long time then switch to the next.



I have played around with personal ini for 2-3 hours now but no luck.
I assume it is this or one of the similar strings that i need to change.
## [defaults]

## titlepage_entries: category,genre, status


The option in grabmybooks (an epub addon) that puts the category in the name is called page title i have tried that and page_title (with big and small first character) but no luck.
The info for the category IS there somewhere the problem is finding the right name to use.
Tried searching but did not even find a question about this out there or in here.

So anyone have any info/thoughts/solution on how to get the category info in to the metadata?

It's a known issue with FanFicFare that the specific metadata
'eroticatags' for literotica.com doesn't work on all stories.

I don't read literotica.com, nor did I write the FanFicFare code to
support it, so it hasn't been a priority for me to try and fix it.
