Reset Last Read Position on Personal Docs?

Robmonster · 11-18-2016, 07:08 AM

I'm sure Amazon introduced this as an option on ther webpage a while back, but I can no longer find it. Did I dream it? Is there any way to do this without deleting the book and resending it into the cloud?

I remember there being a user-made bookmarklet for that posted somewhere here on Kindle subforum(s). But that was before the latest "Manage you Kindle" Amazon webpage redesign and probably doesn't work anymore just like bookmarklet for bulk delete books (that didn't have limit of max 10 books of the official bulk delete feature).

It's still there for me on Amazon UK. Go to "Manage Your Content and Devices", click the "..." button alongside the item, and one of the items in the pop-up that appears is "Clear furthest page read". Do you not see this?

EDIT: I see that this only appears for books, not personal docs. Are you sure it ever was there for docs?

@Robmonster: Here you go: http://blaut.biz/bookmarklets/myk.htm
Use the "MYK:CFPR3" version of bookmarklet. You should also bookmark that webpage so you have place to check for future updates, once Amazon's changes/redesign brake the bookmarklet.

Clicking the bookmarklet adds "clearFPR!" (= Clear furthest page read) button next to book.

That is great!

Now if we just had a bookmarklet that enabled collection management for personal documents...
