> I'm guessing you really do want to use calibre to manage your Kindle collections, but just want to enter specific collection names and not create them based on author or series, etc.

Right. I didn't realize the plugin used "edit manually" differently than I did.

> So if you've already imported your collections from the kindle to calibre and made changes to the column, what you need to do now is use the Customize Plugin option to select 'Create' next to your column name so that the plugin knows which column to use.

I have Calibre/customize plugin open in another window as I type, and I am confused. There is a "Create" option by every entry!

I don't have my Amazon books in Calibre, and would prefer not to mess with doing so. I would like to leave the Amazon books in the collections they are in but just be able to add books from Calibre to the collections WITHOUT removing the Amazon books already there. Failing that, I could set up a special collection for the books I'm adding from Calibre if your plugin could set up that collection and add the Calibre books without disturbing books in the other collections.
