DaltonST,
The plugin works as asked for. But I have one issue that is beyond my grasp to get around. And it's maddening. I added the custom field as desired in the documentation. I changed the description a bit, but I think that's inconsequential. And I checked it in the column creation window (which unchecks itself and sorts the newest field to the end at close EVERY TIME, which is maddening problem 1). I even remembered to go into the tweaks and add it to the metadata_edit_custom_column_order sequence. And when I went into the editor for the first item to first copy (and then move) for testing, well everything went hunky dory. I had created the empty libraries at the desired location before hand. And it just worked. Tried it with others on a single basis. Worked. Set it up to send one book to one sub-category library and one to another. And it worked. Then, feeling comfortable, I selected multiple books, brought up the editor to fill the column to then send them to a sub-cat library and ... NO TARGET LIBRARY NAMES field to edit.
Thus, I spent the better part of two hours going in and out of Calibre trying various things to get that field into the multiple editor. Tried changing from two columns to one column in the tweaks. Nope. At one point, I tried deleting a field since I might have met a limit I wasn't aware of. That took a half-hour to recover from. I ran maintenance. Nothing worked. I can't edit that field in the Multi-editor. Sigh. I'll feel like an idiot when somebody points out where it was hidden. But, I'm willing to take the blow to my ego, or maybe my eyesight. Here are some documentation graphics (a couple are rough to meet size limitations) see attached.
That's it. The Splitter works. It WILL do the job when I get the type to sub-categorize the column to say where they will go. And then I will be able to let it loose and go watch a ball game. And have supper. And nap/sleep a few hours away. True automation. If I don't have to do it one entry at a time.
THANKS, GM
