Non-Book files displayed...

m7gfp · 05-20-2026, 04:07 AM

Hi everyone...

I have the latest KOReader and projecttitle working, and have set the home folder so its displaying my books individually and not in folders - however, its also showing files that are not books like wifi-sync and README, optain-ip....how can I fix this? I tried copying all books into a dedicated folder, but then this creates duplicates in the default Kobo interface if I decide to use that instead of KOReader.

Thanks in advance!

Wouldn't it be simpler to set your home folder as a folder with just books in it?

It would, but it then creates duplicates in the Kobo default UI

Sounds like you could use something like this in your config file
Kobo eReader.conf:

[FeatureSettings]
ExcludeSyncFolders=(\\.(?!kobo|adobe).+|([^.][^/]*/)+\\..+)

Yep, got that in there, thanks though.
