One column I added is "Series Or Not" and in Calibre Companion I added it as "#series_or_not" (minus quotes) yet in the list of groups it shows up exactly the way I typed it above instead of showing up without the #, the underscore, and there are no capitals. Also I created a "Read" column and it also shows the # sign. I also noticed there is already a Read group so is it redundant to list my custom "Read" column? I don't know how the that is already there "works". Thanks for any help!
Custom columns use the lookup name

Lookup names are always lowercase preceded by a # (hover over the column header in Calibre to see the name to use
