The All Books section is a list by title.

Awesome. I used the wiki and it said suppression of the all books section would cut down on generation time... I will use the all books generation next time.

This would be easy enough to do. No-one else has asked for it up to now. Currently you can filter the tags to be used, but not supress that section of the catalog completely.

I'm glad I raised a novel (and easy to implement) idea.

How are you storing these categories in Calibre?
|
I have one user-defined column titled 'category'. Each of the sub-categories is a member of an alphabetically sorted drop-down menu from this column.

I assume that you have tried the "Browse by Cover" view of the HTML catalogs as well as the thumbnail view? One has to bear in mind that anything that is implemented has to be possible in static HTML as at the time the user browses the catalog and downloads books the calibre metadata database is no longer being used.

Well... I was almost dead-sure I used the Browse by Cover view... but I was wrong... it was late... apologies. Yeah I just wanted a static catalog. I have nearly 100k books and figured it would be nice to have a catalog to take with me on my phone in case I ever considered buying something... I could check to see if I already had it.
Anyway, thanks for the reply, hope to see one or both of those issues addressed in due time. I love the tool regardless. I stopped making use of metadata tags long ago because it was too much work... I thought the user-defined category was pretty elegant... but now it's coming back to haunt me, lol.
All the best!
