Okay, I see it now. And while a story update with Update Calibre Metadata unchecked leaves the author URL alone, a new book does not.

I'll look into making setting the author URL optional since there's an alternative now.

First line worked second line didn't.

include_subject_tags: status
metatags: extratags, genre, category, characters, ships,

Custom Column Tab: only allows for one option (in your drop down list) to populate.

You need custom_columns_settings in personal.ini. One way would be:

custom_columns_settings:
 extratags=>#metatags,r
 genre=>#metatags,a
 category=>#metatags,a
 characters=>#metatags,a
 ships=>#metatags,a

Note the 'r' for replace on the first line and the 'a' for append on the later ones.
