Lost my "Last Read" data

HowardBrazee · 11-14-2021, 11:09 PM

I had a user column for "Last Read" in my Calibre database. I copied my Calibre database to a new computer and that column was gone. I re-created it, but it is blank.

So I tried to find the data. My Calibre database has been copied to my wife's computer and I updated (using Chronosync) it then opened Calibre on her Mac. It has "Last Read" populated.

Where is that "Last Read" date stored on her iMac?

All of your custom columns are stored in metadata.db in the library folder. How did you copy your library over?
