Thanks for your message, but I'm still confused.
I made my Kobo Utilities Options look exactly like your screenshot, using the automatic column creation. I now have four columns, Kobo Last Read, Kobo % Read, Kobo Rating , and Kobo Reading Location.
What I *think* you're telling me is to create a custom column called #kobodate, populate it with the values in timestamp, and replace Kobo Last Read with the new kobodate column in Kobo Utility Options, and disabling store on connect in store/restore current bookmarks.
I found Preferences/Add New Columns and created an empty kobodate column. I also found Preferences/Template Functions, but am unclear how and where to include your code snippet. Can you point me to a howto?
When this is done, I'm assuming I'll get the desired sort order when I use Sort: Recent, correct?
Thanks for your help!

I switch this to my custom #kobodate column, disable storing on connect, and then use 'store/restore current bookmarks' to put the date on device.
It only takes custom columns. You can use template search & replace ( program: raw_field('timestamp')) to copy the Calibre dates to one.
Also note that after send, you need to disconnect and let Kobo import the books to its internal database before restoring bookmarks has effect. |
