  • Fix: Change the way the advanced mode deals with algorithms that generate an additional reverse hash (similar, soundex), so they fit better with multiple algorithms working together when the option "match any of items" is turned off.
  • Update: Update Spanish translation. Thanks to @dunhill.
  • Remove the previously added custom column support in the Find metadata variations dialog as it is now included in the advanced mode.

Also the previous post is updated with the this note:

Since you are no longer bound only by the mandatory title and author columns, you might have a situation where you exclusively use custom columns for matching. These columns can have no values in a lot of cases. So if you are matching books based on custom_column1 and custom_column2, and one of them don't have value for certain books, you are effectively matching the books based on the column that have value alone.

This situation can be avoided by using virtual library as follows:

In the search bar type a search like this:

Code:
#custom_column1:true #custom_column2:true
And make a virtual library out of the above search by pressing (Ctrl + Shift + *). Now you can open find duplicates and it will only include the books that have values for both columns.
