@heimdal7 I checked the code of that extension, and it injects some code into the page that crawls the document. Because the reader is in a cross-origin iframe, the code cannot access its content for security reasons (which cannot be bypassed). If I have time (so not for a while) I might add contribute to it and add some JNC-specific code to pass messages to the frame or maybe access the part data directly as it seems they've done with other websites. For now you can either use the old website or open the iframe in its own tab (click outside the reader frame, hold ctrl+alt and hover/click back in it)

Calendar isn't showing for me as well, when I looked at the code, it looked like the class names for the day header and the chapter list got swapped for the current day and last few days. Swapping them back fixed the display issue for me.

With the new reader, it can be annoyingly fiddly to use my mouse cursor to get the settings overlay to appear/disappear. Is there a keyboard shortcut that toggles it?
Also, I'd like to have an option to have the % progress permanently displayed like with the old reader, rather than needing to bring up the overlay to view it.

Pressing the Enter key makes it appear and disappear. -

Kindle will drop support for MOBI soon. https://goodereader.com/blog/digital-publishing/kdp-change-means-no-more-mobi-files/amp

@hessbri kindle will drop support for mobi uploads. Amazon's backend can convert to and from all the formats necessary to still support older kindles. I does show that MOBI is a thing of the past though

I'm having trouble getting the web reader to display the last bit of text in a chapter. I have two columns of text displaying at a time normally, and if there's an odd number of columns worth of text I have to use my cursor to manually push the progress bar at the bottom to the rightmost position to see the last column of text. The "page" won't turn to the last column if I just press the right arrow key or click on the right side of the "page"; it just stays on the second-to-last page I'm using Firefox 86.0.1 on a Mac OS 10.15.7.

Is the problem with keyboard/mouse page turning not working for turning to the last page of a novel part a known issue? You can work around it by manually forcing the page to jump to the last one via the seek bar, though it would be nice if the other options also worked properly.

@hessbri Only for publisher uploads, nothing about sideloading.

@zwabbit I've just added it to the first post. We'll look into it!

When reading a novel on my samsung tablet using firefox can the grid toggle for the font size stay active for more than a nano second? It displays for a very short time and a real challegne to make it appear. When i tap the screen it moves the page forward. Is there a cheat to toggle the font popup?
-
@chocolatkey Ok ty that seems to work. Unfortunately last couple years my eyesight gone down hill that even with glasses reading on screen text at times is problematic. Any chance of making it a built in feature to the reader with a button/setting option to pop it out to its own tab instead of having use key commands?

I just noticed that the main home page barely mentions the fact you guys have a subscription service (which I absolutely love). It looks more like just a normal publisher site, you'll only notice it if you look at the subtext under one of the headers that the header title don't explicitly have anything to do with a subscription service.
Maybe at a Tab up top to draw attention that you have a subscription service (Linking to How it works). Or at least a dedicated Header instead of throwing it under one of the other headers.
If you came over from like Amazon or something it's entirely possible to completely miss the fact that it exists if you just skim the page.

Forum:
ERROR Invalid Event
Keeps getting spammed. -
The forum is pretty much unusable right now for me... Looks like I can post at least but I can't reply to a user, quote, like a post, or access the menu at all.
There are also no dates on any of the post any longer, I can't tell if they were posted an hour ago or a century ago.
I'm using Firefox on a Samsung Note 9 running Android 10.

@xdrfiredogx On desktop, the timestamp for comments have been moved all the way to the right, which is annoying. It might be cutting off on mobile devices.
-
@xdrfiredogx I noticed the same in Waterfox Classic - spoilers also weren't expanding; but in the latest Firefox for Windows all that works. Guessing it only supports evergreen browsers...
My talking sword has a point. And is also right.

How about updating the novel cover on the series page to the latest volume's cover? This will give an idea about which volume is currently translated. For both the website and the app.

This can spoil events that happen later in the story. The series page needs to be friendly to people looking at the series for the first time, so we will not use later covers as the main series cover.
