On the Administrative screen I have "20" comics per page selected (and cover width:202-height:314).

However on the top "level" screen - there are 11 items on screen 1, (5 on top row, 5 on second row and 1 on third row) - screen 2 has 2 items... - - - as I was setting up the top level folders - as soon as I had more than 5 items -- a "Page 2" was created and it always had at least 1 item on it... ---

??? is this a bug? - -- I've tried using Default Theme, Modern, Dark, Comixology - - same with all .... I've looked at the CSS and can't see anything "glaring" that might cause it due to spacing or size of "container" or "cell" or "thumb" or any of "the usual suspects".....

Thoughts?

Not sure if this is inline w/ the purpose/direction of this forum, and if Admin/Sysop yanks it - NP....

I was googling/searching/hunt'n'pecking a way to "clean up" my comics files, and almost universally "ZenCBR" is mentioned....

my only problem with that is that it is a "windows" only app.

(my server farm or weed patch - - is all itty bitty ARM boxen... Pogo Plugs,Seagate GoFlex, Raspberry Pis, and so on..I think there is one intel box w/ Ubuntu - everyone else is Debian Jessie, or Embedded Linux (MontaVista?)

workstations in the house are all Macs, Android phones/tablets, iPhones/iPad, ChromeOS, and whatever my son is running on "his" beastie this week...

......

The author has posted the Source, and declared it FOSS! (this is a good thing)

Unfortunately, the author, Shannon Larrat, passed away 16 March 2013... (almost never a good thing).... (if you don't have a copy, you may want to get one soon if you are interested..)

http://www.zentastic.com/blog/2012/01/30/zencbr-comic-book-archive-maintenance-utility/

(who knows how long it will remain online...)

So, I am thinking about rewriting the app. At this point maybe as a set of Bash scripts, or Java like Ubooquity, my son suggested Go, or python- (which would run on more than Linux boxen).

For those who have used it, what features/functions should it have?

my goals so far -

make it modular,

(each menu option can be simply "dropped" in or "pulled" out w/out major headaches)

attempt OS agnosticism...

(write once, run anywhere - - <snerk> )

avoid GUI, keep it text - (simpler, potentially faster),

SPEED - - - make each function go as fast as possible... or faster

SIZE - - KEEP IT SMALL (both code and memory footprint)

Thoughts?

(is this a waste of time, is there another program that does what ZenCBR does ?)

Hi Tom,

Would like to request for PDF word search and/ or highlighting for the web reader. It makes looking for a particular page much easier than to have to manually scroll through multiple pages.

Highlighting words makes reading/ studying much easier too!

so i have set up the comixology theme and everything looks good w/ the individual publisher pages/folder showing up properly. On the main comics page (where my publishers are) though, it is still showing the default theme (publisher names inside the long oval circles). i have all the theme objects extracted into the proper folders (x:\comics\marvel, x:\comics\dc, etc...) yet that main page doesnt show the publishers as folders w/ the cover images. i'm thinking it has to do w/ the way i set up my folder permissions. Do i need to set up my shared comics folder as "X:\comics\" only? right now i have permissions set up per publisher folder (ie. x:\comics\marvel, x:\comics\dc, etc...). i do this because i dont want my kid to accidentally go into my ICON folder and start reading stuff like Kick-Ass. basically i have it set up as Log in -> Comics button -> Publisher folders -> comic folders. do i need to set it up where i Log in -> Comics button -> Comics folder -> Publisher folders -> comic folders?

i'll try to post photos to show what i mean later when i get home.
thanks!

Hi Ubooquity

We are using Ubooquity in our company since today. We have a policy to change passwords regularly.

Is it possible to provide a script to change the admin password from bash (Debian)?

Is webadmin.cred the hashed/encrypted value of the admin password ? What value needs to be stored in webadmin.cred ? What is the algorithm ?

Kind regards

Stefaan Neyts

First of all, very nice program, what i am about to recommend isn't necessary, is mostly QOL,

Make it so that you can navigate the titles/chapters via wasd, and allow for a simple keybind to open/read chapters without having to see the option to download.

Like i said this isn't necessary honestly, it's mostly something that I think would be cool.

i have looked at the other similar threads who had this same issue but i also have the problem of not being able to access my ubooquity server outside my home network.

i am using an Asus RT-N66U router and a Zoom cable modem. The Zoom is strictly only a cable modem so there are no settings to configure when i log into it. i have forwarded my ports as instructed from the portforward.com page for my particular modem. i have also added an inbound exception to my Windows 10 firewall for port 2202. im no network expert so im just following guides i find on the internet to the best of my knowledge. i still cannot connect outside my network.

i run a Plex server and don't recall having to do anything special w/ it when i installed it. there was a popup box asking to add it as a firewall exception, i said Yes, and after that it just worked. so im really stumped as to why my set up is still not working despite following guides and the other threads here.

one thing im not sure how to do that was mentioned was "adding Java JRE" to my firewall exception list. i have no idea how to do that. i see Java(TM) Platform SE Binary in my Inbound rules so i thought that was enough?

please help!

Any Idea ?

When Ubooquity starts to scan the comics, it stops.

Is there a way to add a 3rd option, along with the "My Comic Books" and "New Comic Books" (even chance the later to Newly added comic books), that is for newly published books to show comics that were published in the last 2 weeks (or better yet make it user definable). This, of course, would all be dependant upon correct metadata being in the comic book files.

Is this an easy to add feature?

i've been wandering about this for some time and recently went on a search to find it.

I have ubooquity and it works great! Best program for comic and video sharing, i can access it from anywhere anytime and i even gave my address to some friends because they like comics as much as i but dont know where to see or download. The only problem is that i need to have my computer running, like 24/7 for anyone to access it and that makes the electrical bill go way up.

But my router is constantly running and has USB ports. So i went searching if there was anyway to install programs on routers and read somewhere that you could install some Java applications through OpenWRT or DD-WRT.

Can anyone help me or did this? Or even have an alternate solution
