cailbre basic code question-save to disk sort

dnm43 · 02-13-2016, 07:32 AM

Newbie, and I have tried and tried to solve what seems to be a simple thing! With calibre, save to disk, I would like to change pubdate to sort descending instead of default ascending.Why scroll to bottom of book list to see most recent. Did I miss something so obvious with simple code.

You can sort on any metadata column by clicking the column header to reverse the current sort order.

Once you are exporting with Save-to-disk, you are dependent on the sort abilities of your File Browser.
You can include {pubdate} in your Save-to-disk template though.
