Once I have koreader open I can read anything. It's only when I'm in the boox's library and I long press on a book and select Open With, then it only gives me Neo Reader as an option.

In the end it's not really a problem, just an example of another bug. When I use koreader it displays the folder structure I'm using when uploading books, which is "{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}" (I think, I can't check right now because calibre is busy copying all of my books to the boox).

For some reason the plugin's save template for storing books is what I'm using as stated above and there's also a check box for using subdirs; you can see it when you go to Preferences>Plugins and then select the plugin and click on the Configure button. Whereas if you click on the button in the menubar for the device where you can select eject, etc. and Configure this device, there the save template is just "{title} - {authors}" (I'm doing this by memory).

And as I said before, when the books are stored in a directory of the author's name then koreader shows a list of authors which is one thing I've always wanted.

And as a final note, I was frustrated because I had calibre delete all of my books so that I could upload them again using the updated save template using the author names directories, but the boox library page showed the books still there, so I did a hard reset. Android is doing some smoke and mirrors trickery and hiding the real filesystem structure when you look at it via the usb connection on the pc.
