Sorting name with Van or van
How can I modified the sorting name so van or Van precede the name so "Joe van Name" became "van Name, Joe"?
I see in the preferences: sorting_name algorithm and per_language_title_sort_articles but that doesn't seem to work with composing name. Or I'm I wrong to sort names this way. Any German or Dutch here to orient me? |

There is an old thread at https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=230705 which boils down to you manually editing the author sort field to address this issue.
Worth a read to see the logic and reasoning behind my 1 line summary. |
