Latest Release Changelog (v0.9.1.4)

We had a few bugs and key regressions that I felt it was necessary to release a hotfix for. In addition, since Hardcover officially launched OAuth and Recommendations (Vibes) just as we released v0.9.1, we decided to wrap that in with this. Recommendations from Hardcover REQUIRES this version or later to work. v0.9.1 will not serve recommendations. Hardcover PATs will continue working, but switching to OAuth allows Kavita to refresh your key for you. # Added - Added: (Kavita+) Added support for loading recommendations from Hardcover. These will be the books linked to the first book in the series. - Added: (Kavita+) Added Hardcover OAuth support (PAT tokens will still work) - Added: Added support for Mangabaka's new URL structure (released 8/31/2026) # Changed - Changed: Opening a completed chapter while reading places you on the first page, but your reading progress won't reset unless you page forward. # Fixed - Fixed: (Kavita+) Fixes chapter cover images sometimes being removed when Kavita+ writes a volume image - Fixed: Fixed black & white lists not being available for non Kavita+ users - Fixed: Fixed series age rating not being derived from tags on first scan a
