There is a whole subforum dedicated to plugins - take a look at the sticky posts within it for more info.

In the Modify ePub plugin as theDucks mentioned above if you want to replace a cover use the "Update metadata" option, and you will also see there is an option up the top right of the plugin screen of "Add/replace metadata jacket". Note that the adding/inserting metadata jacket functionality should "always" work with this plugin regardless of the ePub, it is the replacing of covers using "Update metadata" that will sometimes not be able to work for the reasons I mentioned above.
Kiwidude,

I just wanted you to know that I now have the 'Modify ePub' plug-in sitting proud on the Calibre menu bar at the top of the screen. I now know exactly what you are talking about having the same screen as you showed in your earlier post.

I know there is a whole sub forum dedicated to plug-ins but I just wanted to know the answer to this question to make sure I'm right in my description and to save time.

To use the 'Update metadata' and/or the 'Add/replace metadata jacket' on one book only, am I to assume that the book you want to change using those options has to be highlighted first? Then the options checked will work on the highlighted book and that book alone. Is this correct?

If I've got this wrong, could you just explain how those options are implemented for the book you choose to change?

Thanks

HB
