And didn't I read somewhere that the latest version of Calibre fix the issue with personal tags showing on sideloaded books?

As I said I am new to Kindle ownership but from my reading, and trial and error, it seemed I needed the Collections Manager by Ixtab loaded on my PW as well as the Calibre plug-in. Then, in order to get this installed, I had to JB and get another couple of downloads as well. Now I create the collections using Calibre and then on my PW, open the Collections Manager and select "Import from Calibre" to actually create the collection on the PW.
Re Personal tags and side-loaded books, there was a lot of confusion around this and I couldn't get it working at first. This was at the same time as I realised I needed to JB anyway so I'm not 100% sure that the JB was the only reason the Personal tag problem finally disappeared or if it was due to something else I did.
