Sort by Calibre Folder ID
Can the books be sorted by the Calibre Folder IDs?
I know the IDs can be displayed in the book details screen. But don't see a way to display that column in the library display. I would assume I need to make a custom column? Thanks, |

Make a custom column "built from other columns". Set the template to {id}. Set the Search/Sort type to number.

I noted original{id} because I believe there are events that impose a new ID number Having to burden the database with a custom column to get at something that exists naturally tends to 'off' my sensibilities . By default, Calibre starts with the last sorted column OR using the tweak: ID: sort_columns_at_startup 'None' being the standard behavior (above) sort_columns_at_startup = [('id',0)] |

Even Restore database uses the same id numbers from the filename. (I guess it recycles the numbers after the last one?) |
