@JLF
is it possible that #read is not a True/false column? what happens when you just do a simple search using: #read:true Are the proper books shown? |

I just tried it on my XP install. Set timestamp (the Date column) to Tomato If column #read has the value True It works on a normal Calibre column Read (T/F) is a funny column type in that it supplies a Tick or red X for the logical value. Try with another column (then no need to show Read column) |

1) Note that #read:true gets all books marked "Yes" and all marked "No", but not those that are unmarked.
You might want this instead: #read:Yes 2) Column coloring applies to text color, not background color. Yes/No/Empty columns are checkmarks by default, not text, and the checkmark is already green. You can't change that color. I change the color of the title if it's read. I also use a text (tag-like) column for #read and put my initials and/or my wife's. Then I color the title one color if read by me, another if read by her and a third if read by both. Last edited by Starson17; 11-01-2011 at 10:14 AM. |

Playing about now,
Trying to remove another column now, Year(published) and add to my custom column but when I change this {authors} / {series}{series_index:0>2s| | / }{title} to this {authors} / {series}{series_index:0>2s| | / }{title} / {published} I get TEMPLATE ERROR Value: unknown field published... I think it might be that in the past I did something to my published column to just show the year and not the month & year but I can't remember now |

You're welcome, and a reminder: Hover over the column heading to see the lookup name. BTW, I've written templates using {published} instead of {pubdate}, too. It's an easy mistake to make.
