Thanks a lot Davidfor to dig with me into this issue... Great help!!
First, to answer your questions:
- Yes, I saved the plugboard. When I enter again, I see the picture 3 I attached. So this seems to work fine.
- Regarding my library. As overview of one author, I attach picture 1, so you see that all names are fromatted with "Last Name, First Name" format (including a space after the comma)
- If I open the metadata of one book, I join picture 2, I think that the author's name is corresponding to the author's sort (as it is green).
Do you see something wrong there in? I'm unable to see where the mistake can come from.
Now I tried again to export and I see that:
- The title does not contain the series anymore. Before I had "Daniel Knox 1 - Title of the book". After the change, I do not have anymore the "Daniel Knox 1" but only the title of the book.
- And guess what? The autor in the authors tab is still split.
Now as I'm trying out several possibilities, two questions raised:
- Can it be that my "old" version of Calibre interferes there? I'm still on a 2.64 version which worked really fine with the old firmware I had.
- Regarding the metadata plugboard: the tool gives me two possibilities: either to create a new one, or to adapt the existing one (which is set up for any format and any device). What should I choose?
For the moment, I modified the old one, means that on the left side, I have one single line telling
any format:any device = ([{series}{series_index:0>2s| | – }{title}] -> title), ([program: raw_list('authors', ', ')] -> authors)
But it seems that the combination of the two arguments cancel each other as after the modification, I do not see the series name anymore into the title.
Should I create a new one? I tried to think about it, but Calibre does no let me create a second table for the "any format:any device" selection. Means that I would have to choose another combination. Could "epub:Kobo" for the author be the right one?
Again ... thanks a lot for your support
