Right, so it isn't "Download shelves as tags" in this plugin you are now having problems with then by the sounds of it.
To try to answer your confusion:
- A
metadata download plugin will only directly update the standard columns like you see in the edit metadata dialog - stuff like publisher, date, isbn, title/author (depending on your settings in Preferences) and tags if available.
- A
metadata covers download plugin is responsible for the covers (funnily enough)
- Anything you do off the
Goodreads Sync menu belongs to the Goodreads Sync plugin in this thread
So look at the action you are performing. If you are hitting Ctrl+D then this is the "Download metadata" menu in Calibre. Which runs the metadata download plugins, like "Goodreads metadata".
What you have described sounds like a problem with downloading metadata which is back on the other thread. But don't bother, I will take a look now. My other comments about sending your database still stand, it would help us solve the errors we see with your custom column you posted earlier.
