Don't worry about it. I was an IT professional for 25 years, I understand the nature of testing.

As long as the 2 plugboards can co-exist that would be fine by me as a solution.


Can you clear up a little confusion with the 2 new Collections? To repeat some info from post #1, all my existing Collections (from tags only) sort by author_sort, series, series_index, title by using a custom composite column, #coll505sort, with template
Code:
{author_sort:titlecase()} - {series}{series_index:0>2s| | - }{title}
with the calibre tweak:
Code:
sony_collection_sorting_rules = [(['*'], '#coll505sort')]
Are the 2 new Collections "special cases" which will ignore the tweak and work from first principles?
