Since I was told to make a request here from reddit, here it is. And I don't really know how it'd be done...but if you are unable to I'd understand

I will need to do research on what it will take to add this site, I'll comment back with what I would most likely be able to do as this site requires me to be conscious of several things.

  1. A user must be logged in to get the chapters, so you will need an account.
  2. Since not all chapters are free or already paid for by the user; (what will this app do once we run into a chapter the user has not paid for). These are all things I will need to research; I will most likely only retrieve chapters you already have access to..
  3. Figure out how to handle log in for a user.

Oh, I forgot about Benny-Scrapper requiring a user to sign in. I just thought by scrapper it gets what information is available without needing to sign in. I probably didn't read about it well enough.

Thank you for reaching out with your request. Unfortunately, Benny-Scraper is designed for personal use and cannot bypass requirements for user accounts on content platforms such as webnovel.com.

However, Benny-Scraper does support a variety of other websites where you can legally access novels, provided that you adhere to their terms of service. I recommend checking the list of a few supported sites on the Getting Started Page to see if any of them suit your needs, and have the novels you are looking for.

Please ensure that you respect the terms of service and copyright laws of the sites you choose to use. Benny-Scraper is intended to be used responsibly and within the confines of the law.

Ok then, so I guess this should be closed? Or did you still want to try to support webnovel.com? Since stories on there are against downloading/scrapping them

You should leave it open. I will add this at a later time, It just won't be a priority.
