Thx theducks - that has helped a little. I'm still not sure what I'm looking at inside the metadata editor of sigil. Seems you can't do anything in there except add some fields etc, but NOT edit the existing ones?? NO...it would seem you can edit the fields but the description field is a tricky to to capture!
Also, I've been using ModifyEpub plugin to update the metadata, but the existing jacket wasn't updated. Seems I have to use the "Add/Replace Metadata Jacket" in that plugin as well. So what does just the "Update Metadata" check box do VS the "Add/Replace Metadata Jacket"??
The "Add/Replace Metadata Jacket" seems to have added an extra page called "jacket.xhtml". What is the purpose of this file? Does it just add the metadata as a page in the ebook?
Last thing...can you add html tags to the metadata comments field that points to the stylesheet.css in the ebook (like a header)??
I'm getting there, so really appreciate the help
