Grouping Series in Books List

Nik439 · 06-29-2025, 05:18 PM

Hello, I'm new to the forum.
I wanted to know if you think it could be somehow possible to group all books (under My Books > Books) that are part of a series, into a single element with the name of the series, so for example instead of:
Book 1 - no Series
Book 2 - no Series
Book 3 - Series 1
Book 4 - Series 1
...
Book 10 - Series 1
Book 11 - no Series

it would become:
Book 1
Book 2
Series 1
Book 11

It's just for de-cluttering the library, so not vital, but i would appreciate it if anyone had any suggestions for what to do.

At the moment I'm using a Tolino Shine with the Kobo OS and i installed some patches with Kobo patch.
I already tried KoReader but i don't really like to use a separate app.
Firmware version: 4.38.21908

Thank you

Have you looked at the Series tab in My Books?

Hi, yes i have, thank you

The idea was to just not have the Books tab filled with different volumes of the same series, since i use the e-reader to read manga as well as books and sometimes it's annoying to find a book there, as i said it's only for de-cluttering.

You are pretty much out of luck then. The Series tab is intended for the book sorting you seem to want. The Books tab does not have series capability.
