✨ What's New in v6.0.0

This release focuses on providing more granular control over file organization and improving at-a-glance status monitoring.

New Features

• Live Error Count on Button: The "Error" button now instantly shows you how many files have failed during a download. It will update with a live count, like (3) Error, so you can see the status without opening the dialog.
• Date Prefix for Post Subfolders: A new "Date Prefix" checkbox is available in the advanced settings. When used with the "Subfolder per Post" option, it automatically adds the post's upload date to the folder name (e.g., 2025-07-11 Post Title), making it easy to sort your downloads chronologically.
• Keep Duplicates Within a Post: A "Keep Duplicates" checkbox has been added. This feature tells the downloader to save all files from a single post, even if they have the same name. Unique files will be saved with a numbered suffix (like image_1.jpg) instead of being skipped.

Bug Fixes & Quality of Life

• The downloader is now more resilient and correctly renames large .part files upon completion.
• The list of failed files in the Error Dialog is now correctly saved and restored with your session.
• Your selected download location will now be remembered even after clicking "Reset".
• The "Cancel" button is now enabled when a download is pending restoration, allowing you to discard the session easily.
• Internal cleanup messages have been removed from the final download log for a cleaner summary.

Next Update Plans

🔖 Post Tag Filtering (Planned for v6.1.0)

A new "Filter by Post Tags" feature will allow users to:

• Filter and download content based on specific post tags
• Combine tag filtering with existing character filters and file types.
• Use tag presets to streamline repetitive downloads.

This will give greater control and precision when downloading content from creators who use organized tagging.

📁 Creator Download History (.json Save)

To make incremental downloads easier, a new feature will let you:

• Save a .json file with information about the posts you've already downloaded from a creator.
• On future runs, the downloader will compare this file to the live site and download only new posts.
• Great for keeping collections up-to-date without redownloading old content.

This will be especially useful for users who regularly sync with creators and want to avoid duplicates or skipped posts.

Troubleshooting

AttributeError: module 'asyncio' has no attribute 'coroutine'

If you encounter an error message similar to:

AttributeError: module 'asyncio' has no attribute 'coroutine'. Did you mean: 'coroutines'?

This usually means that a dependency, often tenacity (used by mega.py), is an older version that's incompatible with your Python version (typically Python 3.10+).

To fix this, activate your virtual environment and run the following commands to upgrade the libraries:

pip install --upgrade tenacity
pip install --upgrade mega.py
