Amazon Rating Column
I'm hoping someone can help me with this. I know its been done I just can't find how to do it. I simply want to create a column that has the amazon rating for my books in it (preferably decimal rating). I cant find a plugin that does it and cant figure out how to make a custom column that displays it.

Thank you,
Alan

You can already configure each metadata source individually

If ONLY the Amazon Metadata PI has rating enabled... That will be what populates the standard rating column

Note: this only applies to downloaded Metadata. Metadata embedded in the book will be used, no matter how it was derived

Thanks for responding!! I have rating enabled in the amazon metadata PI. Can you please walk me through the next steps of creating the column to extract and display the rating.
Thanks again

I also have goodreads ratings already so I think the rating column displays those. Also I wanted not actual numbers with decimals, not the stars if possible.
Thanks again

There is no way to split that out (with the standard PI)

You want the ability to have 'Directed" destination depending on the source
