year column

[dunhill]

I had a question about how I could have a custom column that only gives me the year, depending on the date of publication and that can be seen on labels?

Some tweaks, that may (or not) help
The first controls how dates APPEAR in the columns

The Second makes behave as seen (a normal sort still considers the stuff you can't see)

ID: gui_pubdate_display_format
-----
# Control how dates are displayed

gui_pubdate_display_format = u'MMM yyyy'

gui_timestamp_display_format = u'dd MMM yy, hh:mm'

gui_last_modified_display_format = u'dd MMM yy hh'

# Choose whether dates are sorted using visible fields

sort_dates_using_visible_fields = False

Labels? You can use the Python formatting rules i some of the Advanced templates

You can customize the publication date column to display only the year, in Preferences -> Tweaks -> Control how dates are displayed.

Thank you both for the comments, I tell you what I wanted to do, instead of having to make libraries per year of publication (Example: Library 2018 - Library 2019, I wanted to appear in the category part

@dunhill - I think you'll have to extract the year from the date into a custom column of type: Column built from other columns, behaves like tags.

Could you help me with the formula?

I think you want a column built from other columns without the "behaves like tags". The column contains exactly 1 value, the publication year. "Behaves like tags" is for a column containing multiple values.

The template is

{pubdate:format_date(yyyy)}

The column definition is something like this:
