FAKKU Reader Help, Feedback and Bug Report Thread

Daiz · 2014-09-26T16:18:09+00:00

Welcome! This is the help, feedback and bug report thread for FAKKU Reader. FAKKU Reader has been built with both desktop and mobile platforms in mind, and aims to provide a native-like experience on both of these. This means that you will need a decent enough browser to run it - latest Chrome, Firefox and IE11/IE10 should do on the desktop, Chrome should serve you well on both Android (4+) and iOS (7+). Now, you'll probably want to know how it works. Read on to learn about the User Interface, Controls, and User Settings. Index Mode Depending on what you're reading, the Index Mode can either give you a Thumbnail View: Or a Chapter View: (However, if neither thumbnails nor chapters are available, index mode will be disabled and won't be accessible.) Keyboard Up / Down, W / S: Scroll up / Scroll down Left / Right, A / D: Scroll left / Scroll right / At page edges: Previous Page / Next Page (or vice versa if using Right to Left UI controls) Page Up / Page Down: Previous Page / Next Page Home / End: Previous Chapter / Next Chapter Q / E: Previous Chapter / Next Chapter (or vice versa if using Right to Left UI controls) Space: Next Page Enter: Show / Hide UI F: Enter / Exit Fullscreen Mode C: Enter / Exit Free Scroll Mode Touch Swipe Left / Right: Previous Page / Next Page (or vice versa if using Right to Left UI controls) Tap: Show / Hide UI Double Tap: Zoom In / Out Pinch In / Out: Zoom In / Out UI Control Direction Determines how directional page change commands work. As you might know, most content on FAKKU is read right to left, so with this you can also make for example the arrow keys work so that left goes forward and right goes back, etc. The available options are Left to Right, Right to Left or Use Content Direction - the last one simply means that the controls will be left to right for content that is read left to right, and right to left for content that is read right to left. You can also change this setting on the fly on the first page of everything by moving into either direction, and the reader will follow suit. Try it out! Page Display Mode Determines how pages are displayed. If you like to view two pages side by side, then Two Pages When Possible is the option you're looking for. By default the reader uses Singles With Spreads, which displays one page at a time unless the action spans across two pages, like so: Besides there, there is also the option for Single Pages Only, which does exactly what it says on the tin - as such, the above kind of two page spreads will be shown as two separate single pages. Fit to Width if Overwidth Enabled by default and does exactly what it says - it scales the image down to fit width if it would be too big otherwise. Very useful when using the Original Size or Fit Height Page Scaling options! The subsetting But Not When Viewing Two Pages will suppress this behavior when the reader is displaying two pages at a time, and is enabled by default as well. Set Current Zoom Level as Default If you've used zooming on a page, you can use this button to set your current zoom level as the default page scaling. This will change the page scaling method to Set Height with the appropriate Target Height set to your current zoom level. Mouse Dragging Speed One of the ways to scroll the pages in the reader is by click-dragging them with the mouse. This setting controls the speed of said dragging. Default 1.0, with a range of 0.50-2.00. Scroll Wheel Sensitivity Controls the scroll speed of both mouse scroll wheels as well as (two-finger) touchpad scrolling on laptops. Default 1.25, with a range of 0.50-2.50. Version Information At the bottom of the Settings menu you can see version information on the reader and the device you're currently using. When reporting issues it is highly recommended that you copy and paste this string into your report.

Sometimes, my subscription doesnt re-up on its own. Its happened twice (most recently, yesterday, 7/29/2019) and I've had money both times. Minor annoyance... unless you ever come with rewards for being subbed continuously for certain amount of time... then its really annoying.

Keep getting stuck on pages. The page counter changes, but I’m stuck on the first page. This is happening with everything I try to read.

I'd like to be able to go directly back to my library after I'm done reading a book. Currently you have to hit FAKKU! on the top left that takes you back to the main page and you have to click on My Account and then Library to get back to your library.

Does anyone know of a way to prevent the UI from popping up when changing focus to another window/monitor? I have the reader fullscreened (and the UI hidden) on a secondary monitor, but whenever I click on something on another monitor the UI pops up and stays there until I switch focus back to the reader window. I'm using Chrome on Windows 10 for what it's worth.

I did figure out somewhat of a workaround. Changing focus to another window, moving the mouse back over to the reader, NOT clicking, scrolling to another page, then going back to the other window. Seems to work consistently, but it'd be nice to avoid this hassle as I am frequently switching between monitors.

Some collections are not loading. I have waited for a while to see if it will load in and some collections just will not appear.

Cant seem to find several books on the store, like Cherry & Gals or Bullied. Yet when I sent a email to fakku, Curtis sent me the links for the books, and sure enough, the links work and I can add the books to my cart.
If I hadn’t been sent the links from Curtis it would be like the books were just *poof* gone from the site.
Even now, if I type in “bullied” or “cherry and gals” into the search bar NOTHING shows up, at all. Period.
Yet they are sitting in my cart waiting for pay day. I’m very confused.

Hmm... Might have some controversial content mixed in somewhere even if I don't see any on the books' own tags. Didn't see them at first either when I checked now, but after making sure the store considered me logged in as well they both showed up.

The Michiking box doesn't load, it only shows a blank page with no numbers. Please fix it.

Looks like the 'Read Collection' feature is now fixed.

The settings for my reader keeps reverting back to the default. Can't seem to find a way to keep it at the settings I like.

Hey guys, im new on this site, so i have one question. Im really interested into the Kairakuten Beast magazines, but i cant find a option to buy the magazine. Yeah, there are options for buying the stories wich are in the magazine, but im more interested into the magazine as a complete product. Now, my question is how do i buy the entire magazine? Or can i only buy only stories from the magazine?

Thanks guys.
Btw, im new here so if i posted this question on the wrong board, i am really sorry :)

I'm having trouble with the site not working well specifically when I'm trying to read the manga and trying to go to the next page. It won't load the next page and just makes the whole screen go blank and it's been having constantly over the past few days. I'm also on a mobile device if that makes a difference.

Same here, been happening to me for a few weeks though. Only happens here and not with other readers. Latest build of Chrome, ver. 80.0.3987.99, Android 10, Samsung One UI 2.0.

Same issue there. When I read a manga on Chrome, if I'm going for the next page, all the google app freezes and blink. It's very frustrating. All was working well before. What Can de do ?

Pardon my ignorance, but is there a way that I can privately send feedback and suggestions? I'm afraid of mine going public, so I'm grateful to answers of this.

Send a support ticket. If you go to the "Feedback, Suggestions, and Support section" of the forums, there should be a yellow box right below the "Create Topic" button. If you click on the hyperlink in the yellow box, you'll be able to send a support ticket from there. The text in the yellow box makes it seem like you can only use a support ticket if you are having technical issues, but you can use it for feedback/suggestions as well, just make sure you choose "Feedback/Suggestion" from the "Department" section of the ticket.

We have a deployed a new reader build that will hopefully fix issues for those who were having trouble on Android.
