Also note that m is minutes while M is the month.

It looks ok to me. Maybe I'm missing something? All my dates are displayed in YYYY-MM-DD format throughout my system and Calibre.

As I said in my last post, letter case matters. Your format, yyyy-mm-dd, says year-minutes-day

Like chaley pointed out in the previous post. m stands for minutes while M stands for months. If you hover over the "Format for date" field, it gives a detailed tooltip for the various abbreviations.

Thank you both for the help. I missed chaley's post. I did indeed miss something! I didn't hover over the field long enough for the help to display and read . Thank you again both for your help. When my dates were wonky I sort of figured I did something wrong but I just couldn't see it. Sometimes one needs new eyes.

One more question. When I changed the format for the date and applied it, the modified date field for every book record changed to today. I know that every record had to have the format changed, but only a few had any data in the last date modified field. You might want to add a warning to the verification screen that every record will have the Calibre Modified date field changed to 'today' when you are asked to apply the change. Some people might not want to loose that particular date data. Just a thought.

JobSpy plugin has a feature to backup and restore calibre's modified date. You have to remember to do the backup before you to any column adds, changes or removes of course.

I decided to ignore calibre's Modified Date within the first week of using calibre, so I've never used the JS feature.

Thanks for the tip. Calibre is such a great product that I forget sometimes to go look for something. There is just so much you can do with Calibre and it's plugins. Hopefully next time I have to change something like a column I'll remember to dig into JobSpy!

This plugin depends on db events in calibre. As far as I know, there is no event for adding author notes.
