Libra Colour Sideloaded covers are b/w

[Poppaea]

I got a Libra colour today and the covers of all sideloaded books are black and white. The sleep screen of my sideloaded books is b/w, too, whereas the kobo store downloaded book shows the colour when off powering, before it goes to sleep in b/w.

Is this normal?

And if not, how do I fix it?

How are you copying?
If using Calibre, then check it's not set to do B&W covers. Even on the original mono Aura HD H2O the screenshots were colour.

This can be tricky to find, so in Preferences, at the bottom, is "Plugins" search for Kobo, highlight KoboTouch or KoboTochExtended (if you have installed that one.) Customize Plugin button, Collections, Covers & Uploads tab, and *there* you will finally see check mark for Upload Black and White covers.

Thank you. I wouldn't have found this in a million years.

But I did some checking or unchecking in the kobo touch extended driver. That solved it, too.
