Bug Description

I have a subscription to the Financial Times but when I use the FT recipe with login details, it only downloads the headers but not the articles. I noticed the normal login requires CAPTCHA security so I don't know if that is messing up the recipe. It use to work fine so I don't know if FT is changing their layout again.

Hello Hong Ho,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Calibre. You made this bug report some time ago and Ubuntu and Calibre have been updated since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to this bug?
If you are, could you let us know and, in the current version, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 1736043
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Calibre better.

Hello,

You can close this request. Captcha logins and calibre logins are not compatible so it won't work according to the calibre and FT recipe developers.

Thanks

-Hong
