Nice work on the new tag source! Thanks for your contribution.

I had a quick look and had no success with searching for Cory Doctorow's new audio book "Attack Surface".

The problem seems to be
joinuntil "aria-label=\"Pagination\""
which can be replaced by
joinuntil "<!--close #search-content -->"
to produce a valid index.

I've also noticed the various replace commands to remove HTML from the comment. You can use this snippet instead (the regular expression is inspired by @pone, it also removes <em>):

# Description
outputto "Comment"
findline "Description</h2>"
findline "<div itemprop=\"description\""
joinuntil "</div>"
regexpreplace "<[^>]+>" ""

Hi. I just thought I'd check in here. I get most of my audiobooks from Libro.fm and I use mp3tag to tag them all for plex. Unfortunately, when I added this source to the software, it didn't find anything. I know the books in question are on Libro.fm, as I got them from there. Unfortunately, I don't know where the error might be or what I might be doing wrong. I followed the directions to add the file, so I don't think that's the issue. I've tried both the html file and the json file with no luck. They will show up in my tag sources and let me start a search but they don't return any data. I've tried with multiple books that I know are available from Libro.fm, so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or if something has changed that has caused the scraper to stop working.

Thanks

Try this:
change line 36:

to this:

joinuntil "<footer id="footer">"

new file in index.

That does not work for me. As it is I cannot find a single book using this source.

Hi. Just thought I would let you know, this scraper doesn’t seem to be working any more. Any time I try to use it I get an Error connecting to server message 200: Accepted.
