If you can't accept that, look for a different program.
If you can, then just add books and relax, let the "Librarian" do its thing. It has all the tagging, search, export facilities you will ever need. just dont expect to poke around inside.
there's probably a sticky or FAQ that explains all that, in more detail, and youtube will have many tutorials

Right. Just like my Public Library down the street.
I don't tell them where or how to put the shelves. Calibre puts the books
its way for similar reason: how to know where they go.
Could have thing been different? Maybe a long time ago. There are too many lines of code. To many users of the existing structure. There comes a time where the term 'Cast in Concrete' applies. Any major change to the underlayment is a recipe for epic disaster (AFAIK Custom columns is the DB structure change in 10Y)
OP
Start with the FAQ at the download site. It has things that just might save you grief later .
Always ASK here before trying
fixes. Do it wrong and recovery can be a nightmare.
