Quote:

Check library has nothing to do with plugboards whatsoever. If it is reporting extra files in your library then you have extra files in your library folder. Try looking at those files using windows explorer

Not extra files, but a epub title that appears to be in the wrong format (see Explorer screen shot -- only 'expected' file)

Did not play around with the library or contents outside of Calibre. If it were one or three books, I might have done something, but not every epub

This is the OPF in one of the folders and Title seems OK

Spoiler:

This is the content.opf that is actually in the epub

Spoiler:

In content.opf the <dc:title> seems to be ok, ...

Code:

<dc:title>The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes</dc:title>

... but there is this in <meta name="calibre:user_metadata> which appears to have the 'after plug board' title that Check Library might be using ???

Code:

<meta name="calibre:user_metadata:#series_title" content="{&quot;search_terms&quot;: [&quot;#series_title&quot;], &quot;is_multiple&quot;: null, &quot;table&quot;: &quot;custom_column_3&quot;, &quot;is_category&quot;: false, &quot;is_custom&quot;: true, &quot;kind&quot;: &quot;field&quot;, &quot;link_column&quot;: &quot;value&quot;, &quot;display&quot;: {&quot;composite_template&quot;: &quot;{series}{series_index:0&gt;2s|(|)-}{title}&quot;, &quot;contains_html&quot;: false, &quot;make_category&quot;: false, &quot;composite_sort&quot;: &quot;text&quot;, &quot;use_decorations&quot;: 0}, &quot;is_editable&quot;: true, &quot;name&quot;: &quot;Series+Title&quot;, &quot;datatype&quot;: &quot;composite&quot;, &quot;is_multiple2&quot;: {}, &quot;is_csp&quot;: false, &quot;category_sort&quot;: &quot;value&quot;, &quot;rec_index&quot;: 22, &quot;#value#&quot;: null, &quot;#extra#&quot;: null, &quot;label&quot;: &quot;series_title&quot;, &quot;colnum&quot;: 3, &quot;column&quot;: &quot;value&quot;}"/>

Here's screen shot of Windows Explorer with no extra files, and the Error message

I do use caliberdb in a VBS script to copy epub and azw3 files to a flat folder to side load onto my Kindle. It has a file name template ""{authors}-{series}{series_index:0>2s|[|]-}{title}. Don't know that has anything to do with it

Code:

sCommandLine = "export --all --dont-save-cover --dont-write-opf --format epub"
 sCommandLine = sCommandLine & " --single-dir --template ""{authors}-{series}{series_index:0>2s|[|]-}{title}"" --to-dir "
sCommandLine = sCommandLine & """" & sDestination & """"
Call RunProgram ("calibredb", sCommandLine, 1)

Before I did that I did have my own column, but deleted it when I discovered the template language. Could that still be remembered???
