When I write in Chinese, it can't count the words of the chapter.
this is the test page:
https://novel2.littleprince.site/chapter/qiandu90/

How do I rate the work?

Trying to write a comment in Russian breaks the commentary.

How can this problem be fixed?

When user in Fullscreen in chapter page and they click next chapter they exit Fullscreen.
Possible solutions.
Ajax next chapter.

Thanks for sharing.

May I ask how to get the same effect as the demo(https://fictioneer-theme.com/) ?

I think this would be more convenient if you have to select which story the chapter is in among... let's say, hypothetically but possible, 100 stories.

Style the posts below, in cards like the rest. And if there's a compact version for this that would be great!

• On stories pages
  While the lock icon is shown on chapter card view mode, the icon doesn't appear on chapter list view mode.

• On Latest Chapters card for homepage
  Show lock icon on the cards if the ignore-protected is at default (false). Helpful to differentiate which chapters are available for reading and which are not

It'd be helpful for readers to know which Patreon tier they need to pledge to access the content... Anyways, thanks for your hard work.

Posting oneshot/single chapter stories can be achieved by creating a chapter and parenting it to a story, but this creates unnecessary additional drilldown for readers. The story could exist as an orphan chapter too, but this means it won't appear in a list of all stories. The easiest thing to do for these is to just put the text in the story body.

The problem with this is that because the story has no chapters, it shows as having 0 total words. It would be nice if there were an option during story creation/editing to specify that this is what you are doing that measures the story body's wordcount instead of total chapters and hides the chapter count.

I believe its easier for original author to refer back to text if the suggested proofreading appended text also contains backlink to main text as seen in Picture 2.

I currently have tiers in Patreon such as

• Read any 2 Series, or
• Read any 4 Series, or
• Read any 5 Series

Usually after any of my patrons subscribe to these multiple tiers, I usually ask them to fill out a google form and choose which series they want access to.

After that, I'll use a plugin called 'Multiple Password' and create a specific password and apply them through bulk edit to all gated-series chapters for them to access.

For example,

Subscriber A - Series 1, Series 3
Subscriber B - Series 2, Series 3

So, for the additional passwords:

Series 1 - Sub A (password)
Series 2 - Sub B (password)
Series 3 - Sub A (password), Sub B (Password)

Also, since Patreon doesn't allow patrons to subscribe multiple tiers at the same time, I do this manually every time for multiple-series tier patrons. And this sucks, since whenever they cancel their subscription, I need to remove all the additional passwords to bar them from accessing the gated-content, which in contrast to Fictioneer Patreon, this is done automatically for single-series subscriber since they need to Oauth login to access the gated-content.

As such, the current Fictioneer Patreon feature only applicable to single-series and all-access subscribers (I can set all-access subscribers as Global tier to ignore all passwords.)

So, with this.

I am hoping you could consider of enhancing Patreon feature if you're ever thinking of improving it in the future.

Shortcodes such as latest updates, or latest chapters, failed to show the intended count amount. Instead, it shows the default count=4.

For eg:

[fictioneer_latest_chapters count="10"]
or
[fictioneer_latest_updates count="10"]

is showing the default count="4" on child theme. In other words, only 4 cards are showing on the page.

Hwv, it works properly when I switched my theme back to Fictioneer main theme.

Hi tetrakern. Just wanna say that I appreciate everything you've been doing with Fictioneer so far. However, I do have one issue regarding the chapter title system. I'll start with what I did with my site first.

If you look at pic above, I prefer naming my chapters with [Series Acronym - see highlighted yellow] followed with whatever chapter number. Hwv, i don't really like to include the chapter title since it can be really long sometimes and partly because its easier for me to navigate the hundreds, if not thousands of chapters I have on my site. But! this leads to an issue that i have now.

While i don't want to include the chapter text title in main title box, and its slug... i do want to write the title somewhere else (not in the content box), preferably in a separate metabox so that it'll be reflected on both chapter page and stories page.

What I mean is something like this which was screenshot from other theme that i have (refer Pic 2, Pic 3 and Pic 4)

Pic 2: Chapter Text Title Metabox

Pic 3: Title reflected on chapter page

Pic 4: Title reflected on stories page

Is this something that you could consider to work on? Or is there a roundabout way I can do this?

Thanks in advance for any advice or help!

The setting is effective for stories with group chapters, ensuring they collapse as intended, but it inadvertently hides non-group chapters on story pages.

Below is the setting that I have.

Just like how we have those support buttons on regular posts, it would be cool to see them on protected posts too.

Plus, instead of just having a password note for each post, how about a global one that works for all chapters under the same story? I get that there's already a way to add a note for each chapter, but it's a bit of a hassle to repeat the same note for all my protected posts, especially since I'm juggling a tiered membership thing. Is this something you'd think about adding?

Anyway, great work as always!

I want to suggest a more compact-view for Chapters Page template. The reason I'm suggesting this because the current template can only show around 10 latest/updated chapters max which proves not to be as convenient if you have around 30+ chapters updated everyday. Is it possible to have a compact version of it? Like getting rid of the metadatas, cover image and only list out the titles, its respective stories they are under and their published date? It's much easier for readers to have an overview of what series' chapters are already being released at a glance.

Add capability for super admins, admins, or other custom roles to view password-protected posts on front-end without entering passwords

The [spoiler] BBCode does not work properly when wrapping multiple lines and/or other BBCodes. The issue is somewhat softened through a bit of CSS trickery (displaying direct paragraph children inline) but it would be better to have a proper regular expression to match all cases. Or several in sequence, for that matter.

So far my nearly non-existent regex skills have failed me. Unsurprisingly.

Expected Behavior:
Actual Behavior:

Dark/Lightmode switcher should be visible but it's not! But, buttons are there! On the previous version, it was working expectedly but on the latest version, it isn't!

To provide reader interaction on every chapter and every comment.

I am not sure this is a bug or not, but it seems like the Fictioneer theme is not working properly with the Gutenberg blocks. I installed plugin called Otter – Page Builder Blocks & Extensions for Gutenberg, and it's not working with the Fictioneer theme. I switched to other themes, including the WordPress default themes, and the plugin worked fine. I also tested with other plugins with similar functions (enhancing Gutenberg blocks), but none of them worked.

The issue is that the block settings and options are available, but none of the blocks are in the inserter. I can't add any of these Otter blocks. Even with the WordPress default Gutenberg blocks, many are missing, like the "cover" and "column" blocks for instant.

I wonder if I did anything wrong during the installation and setup process, or this is meant to be.

Accessibility has not been a priority in the development up to 5.0 because, frankly, I was running on fumes the whole time and this felt just like another burden on a pile I was already struggling with. So I ignored the most of it. Not all — I did not actively try to sabotage screen readers — but I cannot say I cared much.

The most simple issues are missing aria attributes, but I suspect the tab order is not particularly great either.

It seems that the fictioneer.pot does not contain all the contents that need to be translated. After I have translated, some contents are still in English

The objects holding the list data are not updated when a post is privated or trashed, causing the list counts to deviate. This is a minor issue which does not affect any other functionality. However, fixing this would require several database hits since you need to check whether the stored post IDs are still accessible and then update the storage. Doing this every time a list is called is just inefficient, so a better solution needs to be found.

Currently, the spam protection is extremely simple (although surprisingly effective). Just a combination of limiting the number of links (can be set) and a client-side generated field (if enabled). Any bot not running JavaScript, which is the vast majority, automatically fails here. However, the field is static and could easily be fooled by more sophisticated spammers.

Anti-spam plugins should still work, so perhaps going crazy here is not necessary.

Possible Enhancements:

• Randomized field value that must match (requires a session)
• Hashcash (make spamming expensive)
• Additional honeypots

Resources:

• Partial: _comments_controller.php
• Option: fictioneer_require_js_to_comment
• Action: fictioneer_preprocess_comment

I have suggestion that you make tutorials on how to make a website using your theme that looks exactly like the demo. The documentations only told how each elements work, but do not tell where to put those elements (short codes) so I think it is better to you to make a tutorial about it.

Current stories page as seen in fictioneer demo site is not really convenient when readers want to navigate a site that has 50+ stories around. So, this is just a suggestion but will you consider create a separate stories index page with simple letters-navigation, or a different template for stories page where user can view all stories available at once?

https://fictioneer-theme.com/stories/

Currently, links to comments are unreliable and will not work unless the comment in question is on the first page and not loaded via AJAX. Because an anchor does not know about pages and certainly not about AJAX. This is not a bug, just a non-feature of the theme's comment system.

Enhancement:

• Make comment links work in all cases. Somehow.

Similar to attached picture below, as seen in royalroad site, this is something i think readers would appreciate

Current chapterlist navigation dropdown only displays title in the chapter navigation.

By convention, one would think that;

Title as Chapter number
Other_title as Chapter Title

Eg:

Chapter 1
Prologue

This is based on what I've seen normally on other Wordpress novel sites.

So, I guess you could improve the chapterlist navigation dropdown displaying one, or either both?

Chapter 1: Prologue
Chapter 2: XXXXX

Other improvement could be made includes, if the chapters have groupings, you could display that in the dropdowns eg:

Arc 1 (non-clickable but expandable?)
Chapter 1: Prologue
Chapter 2: XXXX

Arc 2
Chapter 3: XXXX
Chapter 4: XXXX
