Not all of my Anime from MAL are being imported....

Florentino

So I have 633 total entries on my list for anime, (Really need to update it since I’ve seen a ton more recently), and when I attempt to import it here it only shows 302? That doesn’t seem right at all to me, just wondering if it’s an issue with this or MAL…. My profile on MAL: https://myanimelist.net/profile/PaladinRaid

Hum, I looked at your Mal completed list and we have most if not all of them in our database 🤔.

Do you have some example of anime that doesn’t show up when you try to import your list please? It would help us to resolve this issue ^-^

Florentino

I’d have to go through my entire list to check so that’ll be quite a bit of time, I was just curious as to why the import only took 302 of the total amount of 600+

Florentino

A lot of shows are under their Japanese titles, I believe that this is the issue. (The ones not importing)

Scott

That’s okay, since it should be working it’s surely a bug since the importer was fixed not long ago. It could be that MAL changed something on their side but unfortunately I can only start to look at it tomorrow (coming back from vacations)

Florentino

I’m not super worried about it, enjoy the day of rest after a vacation. They can be draining still :), I appreciate the reply as quick as you were in the first place

Scott

Hey, I have some update on this issue :D I didn’t solve it yet but I know why you’re having only 300 out of your 633 entries. I’m currently looking for a workaround.

Edit: I know how to fix it, I’ll do a PR tomorrow :-)

Scott

The PR has been created here https://github.com/animenotifier/mal/pull/1

You can follow the evolution of this on github now!

Sorry that it took so long. Scott implemented the fix and it’s finally available on live servers now.

Woot! I appreciate all the effort that went into this! <3
