Invalid MDList Regex

See original GitHub issue

The “manga” regex for MDList scraping is not working for me. After a bit of debugging, I found out that it is because the href attribute comes before the class attribute in the scraped HTML.

Example tag: <a title="Beware of the Brothers!" href="/title/45114/beware-of-the-brothers" class="ml-1 manga_title text-truncate">

Regex used: /<a[^>]*class=["'][^"']+manga_title[^"']+["'][^>]*href=["']\/title\/(\d+)\/[^>]*["'][^>]*>/gmi

Alright I think I have found the problem. The program assumes the website is using the “Detailed” setting for viewing the list, but since you are using the “Simple List” setting, it not only changes the attribute order, but it also changes the number of manga per page. This isn’t a problem when an agent is not in use (since the program naively uses default settings), but since you are using an account with custom settings, the problems arise.

Capture

A temporary fix is to change the settings on the agent account to use a the default “Detailed List” setting. However, after I looked at the code for this object, I’ve realized it is especially broken, so I’m going to redo it within the next two days for the next version. As for the regex elsewhere, I will redo all of it after the release of Mangadex v5 (or sooner).

Thank you.

I can’t believe I missed that! Thanks for catching it. Once I changed from simple view to detailed, it worked. Good luck with Mangadex v5!
