Display date uploaded as part of book details?

Is there any way to persuade my Kobo to display the date a book was uploaded as part of the book details it displays?

Manually yes. Add the date as part of the description before side loading.

Thanks!

Now, I'm using Calibre (of course!) so where do I set the description field? Or subtitle? Can I use a metadata plugboard to do this?

Also, how do I change which details are displayed on the Kobo?

And finally, is it possible to sort the book list using any of these values?

The description is put in the comments. You can't sort by the comments. However, you can sort by Date added.

The subtitle can be customized in the Kobo driver settings in Calibre. No, you can't sort by it.
