[library addict]

I updated to the new version of CC today.

I changed the settings to select "Sync only from calibre to CC" and re-added the lookup names for "Sync column for Read" and "Sync column for Date Read" (which I had removed a while back since I did not want the information from CC overwriting the information I had in Calibre).

I synced the main Calibre library with no issues.

Then I disconnected the device, stopped the wireless connection from calibre, switched to my vault library and turned the wireless connection back on and connected the device again.

I thought things seemed fine, but now looking at my device and Calibre all of the books which were on my device (Nexus 7) and in the vault library in Calibre, the "Date first read" and "Read" custom column information has been deleted from Calibre and does not show on the device. The other (non-custom) metadata appears unchanged (i.e. the rating still shows, date added, etc). Also my custom column that is not set as a lookup name in CC (Archive Date) was unaffected. This date shows in the Book Details in CC.


The Date first read and Read column loookup names are the same in both my main Calibre library and my vault library (#dateread and #read)

I have the Date read information backed up and can restore it to Calibre manually. There are around 177 books that had the columns' information erased. But I am not sure at exactly what point the information was erased in Calibre. Also I am unsure what caused this and how to prevent it from happeneing again. I know it was there before the update to CC/sync this morning.

Help!
