Hello. I noticed that when I updated to 3.1.0 on my UltraCC seedbox, I lost the ability to stream any of my comic files using OPDS. I can see the directories and the only way I am able to read them is if I download them directly to my device. I use the Panels app on my iPad Pro 10.1 to access and read my comic files.

Just wondering if anyone else has encountered the same issue?

I'm having an issue with the latest 3.1.0 release, where not all of my folders (comics) are displayed when using pods in moon reader+

when I search for the comics I find them and in the webui I see the folders as well. Seems like moon reader+ is only seeing the first page. I have yet to try with another app, but it was fine in v2.

Anyone else having this issue or a fix for this?

This is one of my favourite pieces of software on the homeserver, providing me with content on train commutes. Since there's a new version of Ubooquity, I thought I'd do two things 

1. Donate to keep the project running. 
2. Adapt my own personal theme to the new version and share it for others to use

I've put together a darker theme that is esthetiqually pleasing to me, but I don't make any claim that this is a theme for everyone. I haven't put it through usability trials across different devices and screen resolutions, so there might be some bugs - but report them back to me and I'll make a reasonable effort to keep people happy.

The main differences from the default theme:

# Modern CSS3 usage. Deleted some of the old code which is now failing checks. Added some new tricks instead.
# Darkish background - easier on the eyes.
# Navigational Icons are largely replaced by embedding awesomefont -> lower theme size, more responsive at the cost of some loading time. This is mostly a change to make it easier to prototype other theme changes.
# Category Icons are now photorealistic instead of pictograms at a cost of a higher filesize, typical 6kb vs 30kb.
# Added persistant logout and home buttons in top menu -> More uniform behaviour

The Theme can  be downloaded here:

I have my user register upstream on my domain via Organizr, and I am able to float their usernames and emails via headers after authentication using my reverse proxy (NGINX). It would be helpful if there was a way to authenticate using these headers if so configured, i.e. toggle to allow authentication via proxy and define which headers to use for which fields. It would prevent the need for each user to have to sign in at multiple places (Organizr and Ubooquity). A further enhancement could be to use the headers + some default permissions/roles to auto register users if they are not already found in the DB. 

Auth-Proxy is flexible because it can basically be used with any external authentication handler. For example, this feature could be a nice accompaniment or middle ground for LDAP authentication. It is a decent way to get SSO set up for Ubooquity. 

More and more services are using this authentication method including Calibre-Web. I have highlighted Grafana's implementation as an example below which is very robust.

Ubooquity often shows the wrong cover for mobi format books (about half the time). It usually picks up a cover from another book by the same author, or some random image from within the book. From what I understand, it's trying to 'guess' the cover for mobi format books. 

Does it have to do that? If the option 'Shared books are in a Calibre library' is ticked in settings, then Ubooquity should simply pick the 'cover.jpg' file in the same folder as the book, and use that as the cover. Ubooquity doesn't need to guess the cover at all. Is such a fix possible?

I'm using Ubooquity 2.1.2 installed on a QNAP NAS. I've noticed other threads mentioning this. I responded to an old thread with the same issue, but was not sure if it got review. Apologies for the duplicate. Any input would be appreciated. Thank you.

I have created a Generic Arc viewer that works in any Theme. (tested in the various ones available, including default theme),
To use you create a blank directory and paste in the supplied folder-info.html file and json.cbr file.

link to files:  https://1drv.ms/u/s!AszUwF4_399MmhHBnqngoqBhZx4G

When you now do a rescan of comics, this cbr file is picked up and the directory is now visible.
Of course this json file will not work with your collection as it contains pointers to my test setup.

You have to place the provided .js files into your theme dir that you are going to use. They are the jquery and mustache libary files that are needed. If you already have these files, make sure that the folder-info.html file is calling the correct files (just edit to check).

I have thrown together a quick Windows program (UCC.EXE) that is in the download file. This is used to create a json file from your collection.

To use you need to navigate to a comic page and right click on the comic image.
-Firefox select 'Copy Image Location'
-Chrome select 'Copy Image Address'
- IE/Edge Sorry install one of the above 'real' browsers.

Then paste this link into the edit box at the top and press the > arrow.
This extracts the comic db id and comic address from the link. It then creates a | delimited entry below that contains in order:
-dbnumber
-comic address that ubooquity expects
-label text (this can be edited at will here if you want to see a different label name for your comic - eg adding series order no).

On the left is  up and down arrows to allow the line that the curor is on to be moved up or down. Used as you would go to a series and add all the needed comics, then go to another series and add more. Then you would use thses to sort into correct reading order. The order shown here is the order they will appear in the json file / finished page.

The - is to delete the line that the cursor is on.

Save is obvious. This generates a compliant json file from the data and saves to a directory that you have selected using the Save Dir button. Save the json.cbr file that this creates into the previously created blank directory containing the folder-info.html file.
Clear just resets back to starting configuration. So after saving just clear and create next arc.

This process is to create a 'bare bones' arc viewer. Feel free to add anything you want to the folder-info.html page. EG a description of the story arc/series, banner etc. What you may want to add to the directory is a folder.jpg picture so that the folder looks good when viewing. These images for arc/series can be extracted from comixology website.

So it's been a while since the last update, any idea or time frame for the next release?

Is there a way to rotate a page somewhere that I am missing? If not, could the ability be added when viewing? thanks!
