Chance Author sorting order view
Both values are correct, author FN LN and author
sort LN, FN.

https://i.postimg.cc/Qd3t3CsR/Captur...-Problem-1.jpg

The current view in Caliber's default view is still FN LN even though it arranges them LN, FN. How do I fix this without breaking the database?

Please help me. Thank you.

Hi!

You can set the Calibre tweak author_sort_copy_method = 'copy' in your library, it's illustrated in this post:

@GiZM0 - could you put author-sort into the book list, and post a screen shot, you'll have to do it via a virtual column, viz:

Not sure that's problem Comfy, looks like the problem is with single letter surname names

You could add a column called Authors (see the attached image for the settings) in calibre's Preferences => Add your own column and then hide the Author(s) column and view the #Authors column.

The Quality Check plugin lets you change the author list to Ln, Fn very easily. And back again, should you wish it.

As I wrote, you can use the Quality Check plugin for Ln, Fn. No need for a separate custom column. The authors in the tag browser (left) will change as well.
