Hi, it's been a while since I played with this, because everything was working great. But a few days ago the computer I was running Calibre on suddenly died and I had to start over...
I re-created a custom composite column with the template:

Code:

program: get_note('authors', $authors, '')

And it is working well inside Calibre, showing the author note in the book details section and as a tooltip. But I can't get it to be inserted into the jacket by changeing the jacket template like so:

Code:

<div class="cbj_comments">
			{comments}
			{_author_note}
		</div>

This used to work perfectly, so I guess either something changed in Calibre (I'm using 7.2.1) or I missed something.
Appreciate any help!
