Duplicate chapters upon refreshing Novel Updates works

[JeremyJamesLam]

Source information

Novel Updates

Steps to reproduce

1. Manually refresh library, library category, or individual work.

Expected behavior

Only new chapters should show up.

Actual behavior

Previously shown chapters have been duplicated in addition to updating works, with duplicate chapters showing as unread. New chapters also seem to be duplicated.

LNReader version

2.0.0

Android version

Android 12

Other details

I am unsure if this is an issue with other sources, but from testing with two others, I am assuming that this only affects Novel Updates.

first of all, this is normal behaviour because novel updates does this against scrapers, sadly you will need to reset your novels affected by this.

I had the same issue...

to avoid this you need login to novel updates and reduce the amount of novels from novelupdates(if you got to many novels from their they will detect you scraping them...)

if you did all of the above and still get duplicates then sadly you got also ip-banned/blacklisted.
