Fanfiction Reader - Story Urls #64

Closed kov9413tam closed 3 years ago

kov9413tam commented 3 years ago

Hello, I regulary use the Fanfiction Reader App, but because I can't update it anymore I would like to transfer/backup my collected storys ( a few hundred) to my Calibre with FanficFare. It needs each story's correspinding URL and I would like to inquire where I could find them in the program.

The way you get the URL is you need the story id which you can get by holding down on any story hitting details should be down towards the bottom. Once you have that it's in this format:

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/storyid/chapter/TitleOfFic *If it's one shot you still put 1 where chapter goes

Example(s): Title of Fic Bless the Broken Road https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13397818/1/Bless-the-Broken-Road

In case the title has number like this one it would be as follows: Title of Fic Master Mine Book 2: A Lesson in Love https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13235672/1/Master-Mine-Book-2-A-Lesson-in-Love

Hopefully that helps....once you have the story id you should be good if you need help let me know. I'm having to do the same since the app can't update anymore. If I confused you any just let me know I can create a video probably better showing than explaining sometimes I'm visual learner :)

Does FanFicFare still work btw?

I had assumed that with FFN blocking all bots and unofficial apps, FanFicFare would have been blocked too.

kholtzman5610 commented 3 years ago

I'm not for sure if it's still works probably not with third parties but they could have update later to fix that on FanFicFare. I haven't tested it out yet but if I do I'll come back to update if it works.

darthShadow - You are absollutly right, I totally forgot about it.

kholtzman5610 - Thanks for the help, but I already know this ID method. I'm just searching for a method to transfer all my stories at once. Which I didn't found yet , so back to square one. I have to manually transfer all of it one by one. That's why I'm asking if there's a central URL storege somewhere in the programe files or could I somehow acquire them.

kov9413tam - Ahh yeah I'm not for sure I only know how to do that one at time (which takes a lot of work tbh) but that would help out of a lot if I find a way to do it I will let you know.

  1. Create a backup (Settings > back up files to memory)
  2. Transfer the file to your computer
  3. Rename the file to Fanfiction_backup.zip
  4. Open the zip file and go to databases > library.db
  5. Open library.db in an SQLite reader (like https://sqlitebrowser.org/)
  6. If you're using SQLite reader, right click on Tables > fanfiction_library_fts_content and click "Browse Table"
  7. You can then select all the IDs in the doc id column, right click and click "Copy"
  8. These IDs can be pasted wherever you want to. You'll need to add "www.fanfiction.net/s/" before each ID to import them with fanficfare

superk2001 - Thanks for the help!!! I finally managed to download all of my stories (, it took for a while, I had 5740 on my phone). But now I'm done, so once again thank you.
