Multiple copies of the same shelves in My Collections.

wayne2612 · 06-22-2014, 02:25 PM

I've got multiple copies of the same shelves in My Collections on my Aura HD. Some of them contain no books but even though I hold on them and select to delete them they don't delete.

For example, I've put all my Lee Child novels into a Lee Child shelf but it's showing in My Collections three times. It doesn't matter which of the collections I hold on and select to delete, not one of them will delete. I can delete individual books from them so they all say they contain 0 books but I can't delete any of the actual shelves.

Anybody know how to get rid of them all?

Thanks.

Use calibre and the Kobo utilities plugin; it has an option to remove duplicate shelves.

Ok thanks, I'll have a look into it and hopefully get rid of all the duplicates.

If you find they come back after a sync, then please file a ticket here asking for the duplicates to be removed.

I've had one shelf reappear. I can live with that though, it's better than it was before but I appreciate the link in case it happens again and I can't get rid of them all.
I've got it bookmarked just in case.
