Password Protected Chapter Input about webtoepub HOT 3 OPEN

2. I am not aware of any chapters on ChrysanthemumGarden that require passwords. I'm not prepared to go hunting on the site looking for them either. If you want me to investigate, you'll need to provide me with multiple examples of story and chapter with issues.
3. I'm also not aware of passwords required for peachpitting.com. So, links or it doesn't happen.

Of course!
here’s a few

https://chrysanthemumgarden.com/novel-tl/soft/soft-18/

Here’s one from each site. Usually they have the first few unlocked as a preview and then have passwords for later chapters. Peachpitting sometimes requires different passwords for different parts in the novel. So this is the same novel as above, but requires a different password.

Without passwords, it's hard to be sure, but I suspect basic process, at least for ChrysanthemumGarden would be to customize fetchChapter() for that parser. Logic would be something like:

1. Fetch chapter from normal URL.
2. If content includes a form with id of "password-lock"
3. POST a form with the password.
4. I'd expect the response from the POST request to be a chapter with the actual desired text.

I note the form on the site says:

Due to a recent event, we're temporarily locking some of the novels on our site.

So, you could just wait until the chapters are unlocked.

Peachpitting would probably be something similar, although I'm not sure how you'd know which password to use for a chapter.
Note that the rules for this site for getting a password include promising you won't try to create an epub from the site. So, having WebToEpub able to do this would probably violate Google's rules for Chrome apps.
