Covers will also show up in Marvin if I add a published book (non-fanfiction) from Calibre that I purchased from a retailer. I am still able to download them to the Marvin app, complete with all the metadata such as tags, publication dates, etc, however since the 3.0 update ***the covers I made using the Generate Cover plugin no longer show up in my Marvin library.*** If a fic “came with” a cover when FanFicFare added it to Calibre that cover will still show in my Marvin library. The content server will still show a list with all my books in my Calibre library and just like before, that list will show the book’s cover, author, and title. The problem then comes when I add fics to Marvin from Calibre using the content server. If the fics do not have covers from AO3 I use the Generate Cover Plugin. I do everything just like before: I use FanFicFare to get fics from AO3. NOW: How things work after updating to 3.0 on June 16: It is fast, easy, and I can add multiple books at one time. This is the method I use to add Calibre items to my Marvin apps. I then get a screen that says “Connect To” and I tap the address. Marvin automatically searches for the Calibre content server when I tap the option that says “OPDS auto or calibre server.” It searches and I will get the message “1 found,” which I tap. Step 3: Add fics to Marvin 3 &/or Marvin SxS reading apps on my iPad. For those fics without covers I add covers using the Generate Cover Plugin. Step 2: Some fics have images in them and FFF will use the first image found as the cover for the fic, however most fics do not have images.
Step 1: Using the FanFicFare Plugin, I download/add fanfiction stories (fics) from to Calibre in epub form. THEN: How things worked BEFORE the update: I am running this on Windows and downloaded the 3.0 64-bit update. All apps mentioned in this post are apps I used on my iPad (2017 version) and have the current update installed. I will explain what I have always been able to do prior to the 3.0 update and how that has changed since the update. My issue involves a combination of Calibre, FanFicFare, the Marvin reading app I use on my iPad, and possibly the Generate Cover Plugin. This began on June 16 after I downloaded the 3.0 update. I’m not sure if this is considered a bug or not so if I am posting this in the wrong place I would really appreciate it if you are able to point me in the right direction to fix this.
