I do not know whether this is the correct place as both calibre and a Kobo device is involved, so please feel free to move it accordingly.

The situation, which is driving me nuts, is this:

I'm trying to convince Kobo to display in MyBooks>Authors any author like:

Code:

Asimov, Isaac

In my calibre DB authors are entered as:

Code:

Isaac Asimov & Other Guest & ...

I tried to use the Metadata plugboards like the attachment below.
This always results on the Kobo device as:

Code:

Asimov        3 books
Isaac         3 books

on 2 rows, while I expected:

Code:

Asimov, Isaac 3 books

What is my mistake?
