author_sort_copy_method

ramsan · 03-18-2015, 01:25 AM

Hello,

I´d appreciate your support about the following.

I´m using calibre 2.21. Apparently option to change author_sort_copy_method is not working.
author_sort_copy_method option in my Libraries is 'comma'. I changed 'comma' by 'copy' and restart calibre but nothing happens. I repeated this process several time times but nothing happens. 'comma' had not been replaces.
I´d appreciate your suggestions to resolve this issue.

Regards

ramsan

It will only take effect when recalculating author_sort (it will not automatically modify all existing records).

No restart is required.

Simply go to the tag browser, right-click anywhere in the "authors" tag tree, select "Manage Authors", and in the popup dialog click "recalculate all author sort values".

@ramsan - did you press the Apply changes to this tweak button, and then the Apply button?
