Link to another book from Comments

nqk · 03-13-2019, 12:39 AM

Dear Kovid,

I manually insert a link to another book in the same library, the link is like this:

Code:

#book_id={id}&library_id={library}&panel=book_details

If I click (on PC using mouse) or tap (on Android) the "loading" never finishes. But "open on new tab" works instantly (lucky me). Is it fixable? And it certainly doesn't work in the Main Calibre, but I don't mind this.

you can simply add target="_blank" to the link and it will automatically open in a new tab/window.

, sadly, there's no way to edit that in the content server. I guess I will do it in batch mode when I sync it down to my PC.

Thanks for your advice, Kovid.

Excellent!

Any teaser on how the new version of the Content Server may look like and work?

What new version? There is a new version of the calibre ebook viewer not the content server.

I misunderstood what you said in the other thread, then.
