Replace Author by Author-Sort

mverk · 10-22-2015, 10:23 AM

For quite a number of items in my Calibre library I want to change the content of the field Author with the content of Author-Sort.
How can I do that automatically after selecting the wrong items

NO I will not email the answer to you... I will post the answer here where you can see it (and anyone else searching can too).

The Quality Check plugin has a menu option:
Fix ==> Swap author FN LN <--> LN, FN
