FicLab broken or just me?

[fantafan]

I know it hasn't worked on Chrome in a while, author talks about that on his page. But now it doesn't work on Firefox either. No downloadable story content on both current (beta November) and classic versions of Literotica. Just me?

Developer is working on it. Knows what's wrong. Hopefully sometime soon but its a side project for him.

NOTE: As of July 12th 2025, The most recent version of Chrome now prevents users from using extensions written to the Manifest v2 spec - unfortunately, this includes FicLab. This is part of Google’s attempt to force developers to upgrade to the newer v3 standard.

I am currently working on the v3 upgrade for FicLab, however this is a lot of work, and as FicLab is a hobby project I work on in my limited spare time, it’s taking a while. I don’t have an ETA for when this will be ready, but can confirm that it will definitely be back! In the meantime, please use the Firefox version of FicLab.

This extension works great on a whole bunch of sites. Might wanna give it a try: https://github.com/dteviot/WebToEpub

Reminds me back in FF9 in...2011? There was a plugin to save pages into a singular page format that was a lot like epubs, just under a different name. Think i used it to make offline versions of php and regex website pages for easy reference.

Still thanks for the link, i may find use with this.

Thanks I'll give it a shot. Still hoping ficlab comes back soon, I'm pretty used to it...

I'm a big fan of FicLab and I am pleased to say it has been fixed on Firefox. The save button shows up in a different place, but it works on both series and individual stories.

Had some trouble but seems to work now. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Turned out I was in classic mode (sometimes next page doesn't work on certain pages on certain stories and I switch to Classic to fix it) and that's unsupported. But in normal mode it now appears to work fine. Thanks.
