Sideloading over WiFi
Can you set up Calibre so it is possible to sideload books using my own WiFi network? Like if I wanted to move a lot of books between my devices and Calibre would run that as a job in the background.
If that feature isn't available at this point, is it something on a list for future upgrades? |

Assumes you can Network 'Mount' your device (the folder) Alternate: create a folder 'toDevice' on your PC, now connect to that folder from you device and copy/move |

That would require static IP, no?
Right now I have my Calibre Library in the Cloud (a bit slow) and have that mounted as a folder on my PC. Each device would require its own folder? |

Pull, shared folder on PC. PC needs a static (LAN) IP. The folder would be reusable. Select books and format to send. Device connects and moves books out of folder. Next device please , (repeat) The Content server allows the device to pick from a list (requires some sort of Web browser on device) |
