Progress Saving

[anthonylavado]

Hey there!
I don't think I've seen this mentioned yet, but is progress saving in the works?

Hi,

It already saves the books progress to the device, do you mean like saving it to the server for usage on other devices/clients?

[anthonylavado]

Hrm. It wasn't saving progress locally for me earlier. It always just says no book/comics have been started.

[Kara-Zor-El]

do you happen to know what filetypes the books/comics you've tried reading are?

[Kara-Zor-El]

Additionally, what device/devices are you using. a little more info would be helpful

[anthonylavado]

I'm so sorry - as a maintainer I should have known to give more info.

It's an .ePub, and I'm using an iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 16.3.

The Jellyfin server is running 10.8.9, the latest.

I just tested on my end as well, that seems to be the case when running .ePub files.

I will get started on reworking that to improve the .ePub experience (I'll finally add image support to it as well hopefully)

[Kara-Zor-El]

Hi, I added image support and continue reading support but epub files have proven to be a pain to deal with. I will continue to leave this open for the time being as I do not feel satisfied with my work but I will try to fix up the current system or improve it with a different system

I will also add this in the where to contribute section of the wiki to encourage others to take a shot at this

I think this may be in a good idea to close this for the time being. I have added the stuff needed but am planning to do a full rewrite of the ePub reader soon.
