Insert Metadata As Page At Start Of Book

Hi,

When converting for an EPUB output I have ticked Structure Detection > Insert metadata as page at start of book, so far so good but I always strip the publisher from my metadata, so how do I stop the Unknown publisher from showing up, see below

Gone, Baby, Gone
Patrick Kenzie & Angela Gennaro [4]
Dennis Lehane
Unknown publisher (1998)

Publisher is a required field (to pass validation) Unknown is the printed value for 'publisher is blank' Put some name in the Publisher field.

Find the style.css file in found in either your the calibre program directory something like the following:

C:\Program Files\Calibre2\resources\jacket\
or in your
calibre config directory under \resources\jacket\

Edit this file in a text editor and follow the instructions inside the css file. Find this line and uncomment the display:none line like below and the Publisher info will be removed from future conversions.

Code:
table.cbj_header tr.cbj_pubdate {
    /* Uncomment the next line to remove 'Published' from banner section */
    display:none;
    }

Your right, I just tried it and the publisher was still listed in the insert metadata page. It used to work, put in a bug report.

If it's only a few books, as a workaround, open them in Sigil, and delete 'Unknown publisher'
in jacket.xhtml

OR
As publisher, in metadata, instead of leaving it blank, give it 'Published'
Then it'll at least look reasonable.

My first thought was something like this, it's in all my books so the Sigil way would be too time consuming, I have just inserted a full stop and it looks better than the full "Unknown Publisher"

This was a typo, should have been 'table.cbj_header tr.cbj_pubdata. Patch submitted.

I've submitted a patch to remove 'Unknown Publisher' in the jacket.
