Copy and paste selected metadata
Hello,
Is there a way to copy and paste only selected metadata? In my case, authors and tags only (and maybe series in some cases). Ideally, if I could copy these metadata and paste them on the following book in the list, that would be exactly what I need.  Any idea? Thanks for your help, Emphyrion |

This exists, it is just a bit obscure (took me a bit to locate
 )Right click on the Source record: Edit Metadata: Copy Metadata On the Target record: Same place but Paste Metadata |

Use Preferences->Tweaks->Exclude fields when copy/pasting metadata to exclude columns from the metadata paste. If you Paste metadata to multiple selected books, you'll get and Are you sure warning. BR |
