The plugin does provide a way to put your book into the correct category. You tell it what categories to create in Customize - and then the plugin uses that information to get books that are in that category. For example, if you told it to create one collection for every Author, then obviously as soon as you create a book it has an Author so the plugin will put the book in the collection for that Author. If however you create a custom column with various collection names, then its up to you to enter the collection name you want for the book in the custom column before running create.
Of course, this may not be what you're asking either - so feel free to ask again and maybe someone else might grok what you are trying to do better than me. |
OK, thanks - that answers the basic question; the plugin should be putting the books into the correct category on the Kindle. But it's not. Here's what I'm doing - maybe you can spot where I'm going wrong:
I have a custom metadata field called Collection, which is the field I'm using to define my collections via the plugin.
In the plugin customize window I have Create selected for the Calibre Source "Collection"
My actions are:
1. Connect K to Calibre.
2. Upload books to Kindle.
3. Run plugin.
4. Eject Kindle.
5. Do a restart on the Kindle.
6. When it finally comes back up, the collections are correct but all of the books are listed
after the collections.
