Thanks.

To the original poster, all this just means that each time you sort it, it will stay sorted that way until you sort it another way. The tweak lets you set it so that it reverts to a default on startup, if you want it to.

I suspect you asked how to do this because it doesn't look like it's sorting the way we're saying it's sorting. If it looks like the sorting isn't working correctly, there are a couple of possible reasons.

The most likely is that you are trying to sort by author, but you don't have the author_sort field set correctly. Use the edit metadata button to look at the author_sort field for your books. When you try to sort by author, it actually sorts by author_sort. Author_sort is supposed to be lastname, firstname, so that sorting is by lastname first, but sometimes it isn't correct.
