Guide / Chapters and episodes

Reading and watching parts

How the parts block presents chapters, episodes and manga pages, and what its settings change.

Turning pages in a long chapter: the view goes back to the top of the page.

Text: pages that load in pieces

A chapter of text is not fetched whole. Corexar loads the list of parts first and the text of one part when it is opened, and splits long text into pages of a size you set (“Characters per page”, 0 for no paging). Turning a page scrolls back to the top of the page. At the end of a chapter, Next goes on to the next chapter even if it lives under another parent; at the start, Back goes to the previous one.

The reader: a chooser for the chapter, the text, and Back / Next.

How the parts are offered

ChoiceWhat it gives
ListAll parts as rows; click one to open it.
DropdownA chooser that opens downward, right in the page, with no inner scrollbar.
Horizontal stripA strip of parts to scroll through sideways.
Numbered pagesParts split into numbered pages (“Parts per page”), for very long lists.
Reader (opens the first part)The first part opens at once, with Back / Next between parts.

For a tree, the top level and the level below can be set separately: for example a strip of seasons above a list of episodes. “Expandable” keeps the block collapsed until opened, then lets it grow downward instead of showing a scrollbar.

Episodes and pictures

  • A part with a video shows a player. Choose its style in the block (platform, minimal, compact or the browser’s own).
  • A part with pictures, such as a manga chapter, shows them one under another (“One long scroll”) or one at a time (“One image at a time”).
Episodes of a series with the player.
A manga chapter, one page at a time.
