MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - calibredb format for "series" custom columns

I'm running from source and I pulled this change. It is now setting custom #blah_index fields correctly, this works:

Code:

calibredb set_metadata -f "#subseries:randomness" -f "#subseries_index:22" 698

However, using

Code:

calibredb set_metadata -f "series:randomness [22]" 698

also works -- but only for the main series field. For custom series fields, using

Code:

calibredb set_metadata -f "#subseries:randomness [22]" 698

does not register the _index

As it does work for the main column, I think this should be fixed for custom columns too.

@ZioNemo, this will be fixed in the update that was just just released right now.
