Can someone help me with the expression to create a VL?

Sydney's Mom · 02-12-2015, 11:51 AM

I want to create a virtual library with just my unread books in it (I won't get so depressed every time I power up Calibre and see the total). All the books I have read have the tag "0read0". How do I create an expression that will bring up everything except that tag?

Thanks,

Debra

Code:

not tags:"=0read0"

Also useful -- clicking in the tag browser generates searches, which you can then use to create saved searches/VLs.
