Yup. I was even messing around and changed the [] to () the way author_name_prefixes is and it changed it back to [] on restarting. So it's seeing the data for the tweak but it's ignoring it. I also double checked spelling and casing on the chance it was case sensitive and authors containing the exact items in the list are still getting "FN LN" to "LN, FN" treatment.

If it helps any this installation of Calibre is less than a week old and wasn't upgraded from my previous older Calibre (which was 2 or 3 computers ago at this point). I hadn't used Calibre in long enough that I started from scratch.

Thanks!
