I have a tristate boolean custom column (#my_bookmark) for recording whether I have a story bookmarked on AO3 ("bookmarked"). In personal.ini, under [archiveofourown.org], I have:

Code:
add_to_custom_columns_settings:
 bookmarked=>#my_bookmarks
That's the only reference to "bookmarked" in my personal.ini.

A few posts up I asked about recording bookmarks for AO3 series, and you explained why that wasn't feasible. Yet for some reason, starting sometime after Friday (today is the first time since Friday that I made an anthology), whenever I anthologize a series from AO3 using "Make anthology epub from Web Page," the new anthology ePub is created with its #my_bookmark column flagged "yes" (ie, bookmarked).

I can't figure out how this could be happening. There shouldn't be any way for an anthology created by FFF to be automatically bookmarked should there? There is no series bookmark field, and I didn't think there was a mechanism for FFF to set the bookmarked column of an anthology based on the bookmarked status of the composite stories (at least one of the composite stories of my anthologies is always bookmarked on AO3).

Just in case, I double checked the ePub Merge plugin settings to make sure, but ePub Merge is not configured to set that column at all. I have no reference to "bookmarked" in my personal.ini other than the one above. I have nothing in my personal.ini about anthologies other than a slight change to the title pattern.

Do you have any thoughts about what might be causing this?

If it matters, here's an example of one series on which I used the anthology feature, that was created with a "bookmarked" status, though I'm not sure if it will help since you don't have the same custom column as I do:
