crich70, the Quick Preferences plug in wont fix your problem, but it might help you avoid it having it the future. If its a few books you could:
- change the author name in metadata edit (single) from "Unknown" to "Felicia Gangtree";
- select a format in the Formats box and click the Blue 'i', that will extract the metadata from the book and update the database;
- press F2 on the author name in the Book list and enter "Felicia Gangtree" there.
If its a lot of books and one of the two basic methods - extract from
metadata or from
file name is viable - then delete the books and add them again with the appropriate setting in add books.
For me at least Quick Preferences is an aide-memoire. It doesn't change anything, it is more of an error preventer. I have it set up use various patterns, before I add any books I can take a glance at what pattern is currently selected (books, journals, articles, media) and if its not the one I want then I can swap to the one I do want in an instant.
