MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Content server: Add a button to delete all locally cached books

sorry, I am still stuck

I am looking at the main calibre program on my PC ( which has content server started) and at my main books list
should I be looking somewhere different e.g. at something running on a device that is accessing CS as a client ?
maybe I am completely misunderstand the feature. I took it to be something that would clear any cache used by the CS within the main program ( which sometimes leads to issues after edits, where the pre-edited version is cached and served)

if i go here
http://127.0.0.1:8080/#book_id=6001&...anel=book_list
Home says choose the calibre library to browse. I only have one, so I choose that...
then a list of books appears but the only top right actions are icons for add, sort, search, more...
and more just as 3 options, none of which is delete...
I even downloaded a book from that page, so that there would be something to delete, but still no button ?
the downloaded book is there in my downloads folder, but the puzzle remains unsolved
