 ## ⭐ Favorite Mode (Kemono.su Only)
 Download directly from your favorited artists and posts on Kemono.su.
 -   **Enable Checkbox ("⭐ Favorite Mode"):**
    -   **Location:** Usually near the "🔗 Only Links" filter option.
    -   **Purpose:** Switches the downloader to operate on your Kemono.su favorites.
    -   **UI Changes upon Enabling:**
        -   The "🔗 Kemono Creator/Post URL" input field is disabled/replaced with a "Favorite Mode active" message.
        -   The main action buttons change to "**🖼️ Favorite Artists**" and "**📄 Favorite Posts**".
        -   The "**🍪 Use Cookie**" option is automatically enabled and locked, as cookies are required to access your favorites.
 -   **🖼️ Favorite Artists Button & Dialog:**
    -   **Purpose:** Fetches and allows you to download content from artists you have favorited on Kemono.su.
    -   **Dialog Features:**
        -   Fetches the list of your favorited artists.
        -   **Search Bar:** Filter artists by name.
        -   **Artist List:** Displays favorited artists.
        -   **Select All / Deselect All:** Convenience buttons for selection.
        -   **"Download Selected" Button:** Queues all posts from the selected artists for download, respecting current filter settings.
 -   **📄 Favorite Posts Button & Dialog:**
    -   **Purpose:** Fetches and allows you to download specific posts you have favorited on Kemono.su.
    -   **Dialog Features:**
        -   Fetches the list of your favorited posts, usually grouped by artist and sorted by date.
        -   **Search Bar:** Filter posts by title, creator name, ID, or service.
        -   **Post List:** Displays favorited posts. Known names from your `Known.txt` may be highlighted in post titles for easier identification.
        -   **Select All / Deselect All:** Convenience buttons for selection.
        -   **"Download Selected" Button:** Queues the selected individual posts for download, respecting current filter settings.
 -   **Favorite Download Scope Button (Location may vary, often near Favorite Posts button):**
    -   **Purpose:** Determines the folder structure for downloads initiated via Favorite Mode.
    -   **Options:**
        -   `Scope: Selected Location`: All selected favorites (artists or posts) are downloaded directly into the main "📁 Download Location". Global filters apply.
        -   `Scope: Artist Folders`: A subfolder is created for each artist within the main "📁 Download Location" (e.g., `DownloadLocation/ArtistName/`). Content from that artist (whether a full artist download or specific favorited posts from them) goes into their respective subfolder. Filters apply within each artist's context.
 ---
 ## Advanced & Performance
 -   **🍪 Cookie Management:**
    -   **Use Cookie Checkbox:** Enables the use of browser cookies for accessing content that might be restricted or require login (e.g., certain posts, Favorite Mode).
    -   **Cookie Text Field:**
        -   **Purpose:** Directly paste your cookie string.
        -   **Format:** Standard HTTP cookie string format (e.g., `name1=value1; name2=value2`).
    -   **Browse... Button (for Cookies):**
        -   **Purpose:** Select a `cookies.txt` file from your system.
        -   **Format:** Must be in Netscape cookie file format.
    -   **Behavior:**
        -   The text field takes precedence if filled.
        -   If "Use Cookie" is checked and both the text field and browsed file path are empty, the application will attempt to automatically load a `cookies.txt` file from its root directory.
 -   **Use Multithreading Checkbox & Threads Input Field:**
    -   **Purpose:** Enable and configure the number of simultaneous operations to potentially speed up downloads.
    -   **Behavior:**
        -   **Creator Feeds:** The "Threads" input controls how many posts are processed concurrently.
        -   **Single Post URLs:** The "Threads" input controls how many files from that single post are downloaded concurrently.
    -   **Note:** Setting too high a number might lead to API rate-limiting or instability.
 -   **Multi-part Download Toggle Button (located in the log area):**
    -   **Purpose:** Enables/disables multi-segment downloading for individual large files.
    -   **Options:**
        -   `Multi-part: ON`: Large files are split into multiple parts that are downloaded simultaneously and then reassembled. Can significantly speed up downloads for single large files but may increase UI choppiness or log spam with many small files.
        -   `Multi-part: OFF` (Default): Files are downloaded as a single stream.
    -   **Behavior:** Disabled if "🔗 Only Links" or "📦 Only Archives" mode is active.
 ---
 ## Logging & Monitoring
 -   **📜 Progress Log / Extracted Links Log Area:**
    -   **Purpose:** The main text area displaying detailed messages about the ongoing process.
    -   **Content:** Shows download progress for each file, errors encountered, skipped items, summary information, or extracted links (if in "🔗 Only Links" mode).
 -   **👁️ / 🙈 Log View Toggle Button:**
    -   **Purpose:** Switches the content displayed in the main log area.
    -   **Views:**
        -   `👁️ Progress Log` (Default): Shows all download activity, errors, and general progress messages.
        -   `🙈 Missed Character Log`: Shows a list of key terms intelligently extracted from post titles or content that were skipped due to the "**🎯 Filter by Character(s)**" not matching. Useful for identifying characters you might want to add to your filter or `Known.txt`.
 -   **Show External Links in Log Checkbox & Panel:**
    -   **Purpose:** If checked, a secondary, smaller log panel appears (usually below the main log) that specifically displays any external links (e.g., to Mega, Google Drive) found in post descriptions.
    -   **Behavior:** Disabled if "🔗 Only Links" or "📦 Only Archives" mode is active (as "Only Links" uses the main log, and archives typically don't have such external links processed).
 -   **Export Links Button:**
    -   **Visibility:** Appears when the "**🔗 Only Links**" filter mode is active.
    -   **Purpose:** Saves all the links extracted and displayed in the main log area to a `.txt` file.
 -   **Progress Labels/Bars:**
    -   **Purpose:** Provide a visual and textual representation of the download progress.
    -   **Typically Includes:**
        -   Overall post progress (e.g., "Post 5 of 20").
        -   Individual file download status (e.g., "Downloading file.zip... 50% at 1.2 MB/s").
        -   Summary statistics at the end of a session (total downloaded, skipped, failed).
 ---
 ## Error Handling & Retries
 -   **🆘 Error Button (Main UI):**
    -   **Location:** Typically near the main action buttons (e.g., Start, Pause, Cancel).
    -   **Purpose:** Becomes active if files failed to download during the last session (and were not successfully retried). Clicking it opens the "Files Skipped Due to Errors" dialog.
    -   **"Files Skipped Due to Errors" Dialog:**
        -   **File List:** Displays a list of files that encountered download errors. Each entry shows the filename, the post it was from (title and ID).
        -   **Checkboxes:** Allows selection of individual files from the list.
        -   **"Select All" Button:** Checks all files in the list.
        -   **"Retry Selected" Button:** Attempts to re-download all checked files.
        -   **"Export URLs to .txt" Button:**
            -   Opens an "Export Options" dialog.
            -   **"Link per line (URL only)":** Exports only the direct download URL for each failed file, one URL per line.
            -   **"Export with details (URL [Post, File info])":** Exports the URL followed by details like Post Title, Post ID, and Original Filename in brackets.
            -   Prompts the user to save the generated `.txt` file.
        -   **"OK" Button:** Closes the dialog.
    -   **Note:** Files successfully retried or skipped due to hash match during a retry attempt are removed from this error list.

+
-    -   A new "**Add Selected Posts to Queue**" button allows you to add your chosen posts directly to the main download queue, streamlining the process of gathering content from multiple artists.
+- **Live Error Count on Button**  
-    -   The traditional "**Add Selected to URL**" button is still available if you prefer to populate the main URL field with creator names.
+  The **"Error" button** now dynamically displays the number of failed files during a download. Instead of opening the dialog, you can quickly see a live count like `(3) Error`, helping you track issues at a glance.
-   **Improved Favorite Download Queue Handling:**
+
-    -   When items are added to the download queue from the Creator Selection popup, the main URL input field will now display a placeholder message (e.g., "{count} items in queue from popup").
+- **Date Prefix for Post Subfolders**  
-    -   The queue is now more robustly managed, especially when interacting with the main URL input field after items have been queued from the popup.
+  A new checkbox labeled **"Date Prefix"** is now available in the advanced settings.  
  When enabled alongside **"Subfolder per Post"**, it prepends the post's upload date to the folder name (e.g., `2025-07-11 Post Title`).  
  This makes your downloads sortable and easier to browse chronologically.
 - **Keep Duplicates Within a Post**  
  A **"Keep Duplicates"** option has been added to preserve all files from a post — even if some have the same name.  
  Instead of skipping or overwriting, the downloader will save duplicates with numbered suffixes (e.g., `image.jpg`, `image_1.jpg`, etc.), which is especially useful when the same file name points to different media.
 ### Bug Fixes
 - The downloader now correctly renames large `.part` files when completed, avoiding leftover temp files.
 - The list of failed files shown in the Error Dialog is now saved and restored with your session — so no errors get lost if you close the app.
 - Your selected download location is remembered, even after pressing the **Reset** button.
 - The **Cancel** button is now enabled when restoring a pending session, so you can abort stuck jobs more easily.
 - Internal cleanup logs (like "Deleting post cache") are now excluded from the final download summary for clarity.

-## ✨ What's New in v5.1.0
+## 📅 Next Update Plans
 -   **Enhanced Error File Management**: The "Error" button now opens a dialog listing files that failed to download. This dialog includes:
    -   An option to **retry selected** failed downloads.
    -   A new **"Export URLs to .txt"** button, allowing users to save links of failed downloads either as "URL only" or "URL with details" (including post title, ID, and original filename).
    -   Fixed a bug where files skipped during retry (due to existing hash match) were not correctly removed from the error list.
 -   **Improved UI Stability**: Addressed issues with UI state management to more accurately reflect ongoing download activities (including retries and external link downloads). This prevents the "Cancel" button from becoming inactive prematurely while operations are still running.
-## ✨ What's New in v5.2.0
+### 🔖 Post Tag Filtering (Planned for v6.1.0)
-   **Multi-language Support:** The interface now supports multiple languages: English, Japanese, French, Spanish, German, Russian, Korean, and Chinese (Simplified). Select your preferred language in the new Settings dialog.
+
-   **Theme Selection:** Choose between Light and Dark application themes via the Settings dialog for a personalized viewing experience.
+A powerful new **"Filter by Post Tags"** feature is planned:
-   **Centralized Settings:** A new Settings dialog (accessible via a settings button, often with a gear icon) provides a dedicated space for language and appearance customizations.
+
-   **Internal Localization:** Introduced `languages.py` for managing UI translations, streamlining the addition of new languages by contributors.
+- Filter and download content based on specific post tags.
 - Combine tag filtering with current filters (character, file type, etc.).
 - Use tag presets to automate frequent downloads.
 This will provide **much greater control** over what gets downloaded, especially for creators who use tags consistently.
 ### 📁 Creator Download History (.json Save)
 To streamline incremental downloads, a new system will allow the app to:
 - Save a `.json` file with metadata about already-downloaded posts.
 - Compare that file on future runs, so only **new** posts are downloaded.
 - Avoids duplication and makes regular syncs fast and efficient.
 Ideal for users managing large collections or syncing favorites regularly.
