Question Removing series name/volume number in the title?

Hello. I recently bought a Kobo Libra Color and when I wanted to test how a .cbz file behaved, I ran into a problem: no matter how well I indicated the author in Calibre, on my e-reader it always says ‘Author Unknown’.

I followed the instructions in this topic (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=338500):
Quote:
To do this, in the driver configuration, enable the "Update metadata on Book Details pages" option and on the "Sending books to devices" page of the preferences, set the "Metadata management" option to automatic.
And after doing as instructed, it actually works.

Unfortunately, since I've checked these 2 boxes, all my epub, kepub and pdf (and even cbz) no longer appear in my Kobo in that format:
The Fellowship of the Ring
The Lord of the Ring - 1
J. R. R. Tolkien


But like this:
The Fellowship of the Ring - The Lord of the Ring01
The Lord of the Ring - 1
J. R. R. Tolkien


Is there a way to keep these new settings while removing series name and volume number in the title, please?

Do you use a metadata plugboard? A template for sending to device? If so, delete or change them.
