- If the author field has significantly changed, Import List returns an error even if the title is identical. When I use the plugin to match the CSV row to the book, it doesn't overwrite the correct author information from the CSV file.
- To solve #2 another way, despite manually matching the "ID" column of my CSV file to the ID:uuid identifier, I cannot get it to index using uuid. Every row returns an error. (See attached.)
I am at my wit's end trying to get this to work. Any help is appreciated. |
Adding screenshots of the problem after fixing #2 above. I'm trying to map the author_sort to a user-created Author Sort column, I know it's not the default author_sort metadata tag. But I would prefer overwriting the default author_sort via CSV if possible.
