I haven't touched that part of the code recently, so I suppose it's a change on the goodreads end.
Do you mean you want the dates to be in ascending order? That would mean when you split it into columns the first one is always the first read date.
I've changed the tool to sort the read dates now, so from version v0.11 they are always in ascending order, e.g.
2023-04-13,2023-04-16;2023-07-16,2023-07-25
does that work for you?
Yes, that is great. I had to do some gymnastics to get them in order. Basically they need to go DS1, DF1;DS2,DF2;DS3,DF3; Then all I have to do is split the columns and they fall in the order. I believe that is what you did here. I THANK YOU SO MUCH...Please, I would very much like to donate to your cause. I have asked for and received such great responses from you that I must offer some kind of compensation, even if this is a labor of love and not a huge problem for you. Can I Zelle or PayPal?
ALSO, you really need to promote this plugin to Mobile Read because I use it to import into my Calibre Library and others will want this as well.
Thanks Again!

Great! Nice to see I could help
even if this is a labor of love and not a huge problem for you. Can I Zelle or PayPal?
Definitely don't feel like you have to give anything, but here's a PayPal link if you really want to 😊: paypal.me/PaulSKlinger
Thanks, I sent you $50
Again, thanks for the work!

Hello,
I don't know how else to email you, but I had a question. If I use the "old' export with the new export to save time, will the updated dates show or is it just going to exclude them since they are already showing with the old export. Example: I just re-read a book that already has been processed in the old export. Will the additional read-dates show up in the newly processed export?
Thanks!

Hi Robin,
It will skip all books that already have any of the additional columns, so the new dates won't be added. You'll have to either not select the old export, or check the "process all" option to reprocess everything when you want to update previously processed books.
Hi Paul,
No, I was fine with the dates. I wanted to figure out how to get better genre pulls. Goodreads has changed their genre gathering to rely on user shelves, which has caused some problems in the genre data your program pulls. Specifically, when there are only a few readers for a book, this method results in fewer genres being captured.
I understand that your program only pulls genres that have at least 10 users. This is leading to missing genres for books with fewer readers. For example:
"Lord of the Abyss / Desert Warrior" by Nalini Singh:
Paranormal - 22; Fantasy - 18; Fantasy > Supernatural - 4; Adult - 4; Fantasy > Magic - 4; Fiction - 3; Fantasy > Urban Fantasy - 2; Paranormal > Shapeshifters - 2
"Saving Evangeline" by Nancee Cain:
For books without many readers, significant genres are being missed. Conversely, books with more readers are getting genres that aren't useful, such as: "Awakened" by P.C. Cast & Kristin Cast:
Genres like "House Of Night", "Ya", "My Books", "P C Cast", "House Of Night Series", "Read In 2011", "Wishlist", "Owned Books", "Series" are not actual genres and need to be weeded out.
Here are my suggestions:
This approach could help capture more accurate genre data and weed out irrelevant shelves.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Best regards, Robin
I'll take a look this weekend. I can definitely make the number of users configurable, maybe as the the higher of a fixed threshold or a percentage of the highest users per category (after filtering).
There's already some fitering of invalid genres (configured here), I can add your suggestions there. But that will never be perfect.
Ok, so I went through my most recent output and entered it into Calibre. I was able to weed out the "good" genres, and left all the "bad" ones. There are some definite ways of isolating them. For example any tag that has "read" in it should be gone. Also, the majority of tags have the name of the author or series or both. If there was some way of saying "if tag includes author name or title" exclude it. Also, there should be some find/replace or skip. For example "uf" and "ya" and "na" would also show up in the same book with "urban-fantasy", "new-adult" and "young-adult" so again, there are redundancies.
I am going to take a crack at it myself to see if it can't be done. I use ChatGPT and it has been really helpful in doing stuff.
I have python and git on my computer too.
Anyway, at least there is a list of the genres, as well as the count in my library. Those numbers represent the amount of times that genre appears in my most recent 4500 list of books.
Let me know your opinions
Thanks! Robin

Didn't have much time, but I added a few exclusions (including the author name, not book title because that seems a bit riskier if it's a common word). I've also added an option to specify the required number of votes to add a genre, either a fixed number or a percentage of the votes for the most voted genre.
Did you do something to change the tacked on start/finish dates are ordered?
They are presented in ascending read date order instead of descending.
It has messed up my ability to import the dates because when I separate the columns they used to fall into the correct orders in the row. ie. the first groupings were the first time I read the book, and so on making it easy to put the groupings into DS1 (date started 1) and DF1(Date finished 1) and so on down the line. Normally this wouldn't bother many people, but I have over 1900 read books with over 400 multiple read dates with some going up to 11 dates total.
If I read one book 10 times and another one 2 times the latest date I read both books will end up on the first column as the first date I read them.
I don't have the brain power to move the cells around to put the dates in order.
Like I asked, did you change the way the dates are grabbed, or is this a new way GR is presenting them?
