You are about to read some bad English. and I am really sorry about it. I am not a native English speaker.
I am not really good at explaining things so plz forgive if you don't understand a thing.
Hey guys I just found a Bug So When I first Installed Toshocat and sync my anime list
It got synced correctly But there is a bug in it
Toshocat only syncs correctly from the MAL for the first time only after that it only updates MAL list.
But if the user add a anime through MAL not from toshocat it won't sync a damn thing
I tried too many times I even reload toshocat and re add my credentials but it won't sync MAL it just update MAL. Is there is anything I can do?
Edit: I forgot to write that the syncing message comes up and it even shows it got synced correctly but in reality it won't sync a damn thing.
It takes a few minutes to update.
Toshocat gets its info directly from MyAnimeList and it takes a few minutes for this endpoint to show the changes: http://myanimelist.net/malappinfo.php?type=anime&status=all&u=USERNAME
How many minutes do I have to wait? because it's been 10 minutes but it didn't sync at all.
I can only see that blue popup that tell's you it's syncing then after 1 to 2 seconds the blue popup change into green and says syncing complete but still in reality it didn't at all.
why does it take that much to being with?
@Droyk The MyAnimeList API doesn't update instantly - its results are cached. I'll try and contact MyAnimeList and see if they can fix it on their side.
Okay by the way how much it took it on your system?
Well For me its been 25 minutes since I open Toshocat but still no syncing :(
One hour still no progress.. can you plz tell where you store the synced Anime list. I am thinking of deleting the list maybe that can help?
- Open up the developer tools through the top-left menu.
- Go to the resources tab > click on local storage > file://.
- Finally, select the
list.myanimelistline and delete it (and then reload the app).
Okay that fixed it but not completely but at least now I have a workaround until you patch this bug up.
And I just notice something Every time I hit Re-sync with MyAnimeList on settings panel it give the below error on developer console. See if this helps you to solve the problem
So do you plan to work on this again if yes will you be able to tell me an approximate time it's going to take?
@Droyk Yes, I do plan on working on this again. Hopefully I'll get a new major version out on a month or two!
Okay thanx :)
