Set calibre to show title then series
Hi,

How do I set a calibre plugboard up to show the book title, series name and series number in that order?

Also on the later versions of calibre is it possible to match the title of the book on the kobo device with the title in the calibre library.

I use kobo to download all of my books and only use calibre to fine tune the series info on them.

Thanks

but honestly speaking placing the series and series index first make sorting the books by series far far easier on the device.

It isn't built into calibre, but my Kobo Utilities plugin will do this. The update metadata function will update the database on the device to match what is in the calibre library.
