send to several devices in one click

joselitux · 01-10-2021, 01:51 PM

I have 3 devices linked by mail to my calibre. Usually I read books in any of them (two kindle devices and a tablet)
My issue is when I send a book to them I have to send it one by one.

is there any way of creating a group or batch method to send it in one click?

Regards

The JobSpy plugin has some functions that may help:

Or maybe the Action Chain plugin.

My suggestion: Get Reading List plugin. Make a list for each device. Set it to auto-sync to that device specifically and then clear after sync.

Get the Action Chains plugin. Make a chain with three Calibre actions to add to your three reading lists.

Run the chain on a book and then view the lists to make sure it worked as intended. Then plug in your devices.
