Column for books transferred to eReader

Ridcully · 02-11-2020, 02:06 PM

Is there a plugin that lets me keep track which books I've sent to my eReader in a special column. Kind of like the "On Device" column that shows up when I connect it to the computer, but this would also be accessible when the eReader is disconnected.

IIRC some people use the Reading List plugin to keep track of what's on their devices ==>> Index of plugins

I second the Reading List plugin. Works great for me.

Thanks, took me a bit to figure it out tho. Looks like I have to add the books to the reading list instead of using Send to device, no way around this?

The purpose of the reading list is to know what books to send. And it can be configured to automatically do the send-to-device when the device is connected. Or, you can do it yourself.

Your question is one that comes up reasonably often. The last time was https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...73#post3940173. It does have a couple of suggestions that might be what you want.

Use the auto-populated reading list, with an optional custom #status column you can view the status directly or match it with an icon rule (Calibre settings, look and feel).
