Kobo Discounts: Coupon Codes + Discussion

[Purple Lady]

No matter what I choose, the sorting doesn't work. I get the same order for everything - this is sorted by author. The screen refreshes, but the order never changes. I tried on Opera, Chrome, and Dolphin on my tablet. I normally use desktop format but it looks the same no matter what I choose.

FWIW, the old library is still accessible (for me, anyway) at https://www.kobobooks.com/library/library.html

That works, thanks!

I see that I have a bunch of titles all with the "date added" of 4/20/2016 when the last thing I actually purchased was 4/19. I think they're books that I transferred over from Sony way back when.

The ones in my library that have a date of 4/20/2016 are ones that Kobo no longer carries. I think this may be where my sort problem comes from too. Can you sort by title and have the books sorted correctly?

As long as if by "sorted correctly" you don't mean actual alphabetical order, then yes

This is Kobo. They apparently have a different order for their alphabet.

Also, for anyone who hasn't seen it, there's an issue with some books missing now that Kobo has updated the library. Mostly Sony to Kobo transfers. You can read more about it in the Kobo forum

Thanks for posting that discussion thread - I should have checked first!

And Ferrywoman, thank you for the old library link...bookmarking.

Unless I've missed something, the new Kobo library format no longer makes it easy to determine if a book is DRM-free (and can be downloaded directly to my Linux netbook) or not (and needs to be opened on my Windows desktop).

If you click on "Export File" it will tell you whether it is DRM or DRM-free.

Thanks!

(Didn't want to commit myself, just in case.)

Where are you reading 'date added', which screen?

The library screen. On my pc I had to go full screen on IE to see it, and on my Tab S 8.4 I had to remove the increased dpi I set Opera to.

Thank you Purple Lady!!

I was on full screen already but I needed to minimise the writing.

No contest since January, and IIRC no multi-use codes since either. [certainly not over 50%]. Unless you're lucky enough to get a 'we miss you' code, no general codes to be seen.

Unless you're lucky enough to get a 'we miss you' code that works...
