Missing Sections #3

Closed bossybookworm closed 10 years ago

bossybookworm commented 10 years ago

Hi. I've noticed with the last several stories I've downloaded that there are missing sections of text when I go to read them; anything from a few sentences, to several chapters in one case. The book that was missing chapters was fixed when I did it again as an ePub rather than mobi file; for the missing sentences, it doesn't seem to matter what format. Any ideas why this is happening?

Hi, thanks for reaching out to me.

You can confirm this consistently happens for mobi files but not ePub? And both formats have sentences missing? Also, if you could give me a fanfic link where this bug happens to test with, I'd appreciate it.

I noticed a missing sentence/paragraph last night while reading a MOBI I downloaded. I checked the source code, and this particular sentence isn't wrapped in an html <p> tag, which I would assume is why it skipped over it.

It can be found here: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/1755345/18/War-s-Shadow by searching for 'He kept trying to come out of it'

I noticed it again on this same chapter. It seems to happen directly after:

Search for 'The sun never did find its' to find second scenario.

Thanks for getting back to me. The missing sentences still happen in epub, but so far, no missing chapters. However, most of the fics I've read in the last two days have been short, one or two chapters, so I could be missing things and not even know. (I'm currently disabled and spending way too much time reading these...) The book missing chapters was https://www.fanfiction.net/s/1433298/1/Dear-Rival As I said, in epub, it was fine. Here are a few links that have had missing sentences in both formats: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7402541/1/Bollocks https://www.fanfiction.net/s/2781542/1/All-the-Answers

Thanks! Jonna

@alisonmf I can happily say that I've fixed this problem. However before I close this issue, @bossybookworm I can confirm that "Dear Rival" is no longer missing any chapters, but can you let me know if those other fanfics you've listed are still missing sentences?

bossybookworm commented 10 years ago

@alisonmf I could, if I knew how. Do I need to redo them? (I am a total no-nothing when it comes to tech stuff!) I will go and read a few, and get back to you.

Hi. So far, everything I've gone back and read on my tablet seems to be complete, no missing sentences, words or chapters! Yippee! Thank you! Jonna

@bossybookworm Great to hear! I'll close this issue once I update the git repo here.
