I just archive all my Kobo purchases, after downloading them and adding them to Calibre. This way they don't show up on my Kobos. I sideload everything.

Why would you have your device connected to a Kobo account at all if you sideload everything? There's no reason to ever sync except to get dictionaries and firmware updates.

There was no sideloaded mode when I bought my two latest Kobos; they had to be registered to use them. I just haven't bothered to change this later. Besides, I kind of like the homepage, even though I rarely use it.

Why not archives those many pages books that you don't have downloaded? Use Books ... menu to Manage books and remove from there or do it from the web page. As for a request in the Kobo Utilities plugin? What you are going to ask for? The ability to archive a purchased book? |

I guess maybe I don't know what the term "downloaded books" means. I don't see how moving books into your Kobo archive helps when those books would all be on your device anyway via sideloading, thus giving you a long list when trying to find a particular book. If the book is on your device, does that not count as a "downloaded book"?

Also I don't sideload all my purchases at once, but only a part of them; the rest are waiting for their time in Calibre. Last edited by Sirtel; 08-15-2023 at 05:22 PM. |

Basically, if Purchased, Kobo Plus and Imported don't add up to Downloaded, you have books that are sourced from Kobo but are not synced/downloaded to your ereader. |

I don't understand how your device can know about a book without having it downloaded, as I've never seen a book in such a state. It's either on the device, or I've deleted it, and then it's not on the device anymore. ![]() |

Ah, I guess I never had enough un-downloaded books for a sync to not grab all of them at once, so I was unaware of this behaviour. Thank you for the clarification.

DNSB, do you maintain Kobo Utilities? I may be banging my head against a wall with this request. |
