I can't figure out how to assign the custom column to the plugin. I've made one, but I can't see the option to assign it, or to create one from the window that pops up when it first tries to run.

You set the custom columns on the configuration dialog. Right-click on the button to get the menu and select "Customize plugin".

I think you have the formats the wrong way round. Page and Word counts are always integers, the other stats aren't, so will need Floating point numbers.

I just noticed that I couldn't edit my #wordcount column in the book list for my three primary libraries (_Main, _Journals and _Media). When I hit tab in the column to the left of #wordcount I would drop out of edit mode When I went into the MDE dialogue the #wordcount columns were absent.
So I looked into custom_columns table in the three databases, and I wasn't surprised to find the #wordcount editable column had a value of '0'. I can just about believe I might have changed this in one library database at some time, most likely my _Test Library database, but in my three primary libraries... hardly Normal service, i.e. ability to tab through the #wordcount column in the book list in edit mode, was resumed once I changed the editable cell for #wordcount to '1' So my question is: was the plugin changed to set the editable column in the custom_columns table to 0 for the #wordcount custom column? Because that's the only explanation for the strange phenomenon I can come up with For many people it wouldn't be a bad idea to make the columns Count Pages populates non editable. But it should be configurable, because it wouldn't suit everyone. BR |

BR: I don't know how it happened, but it wasn't the Count Pages plugin. The only thing about the columns used by the plugin that it touches is the value.

@davidfor - I didn't really think it was CP because I haven't installed a new version, or prodded it in any way since 2017-01-22. I don't do a lot of MD editing in those libraries, occasional corrections or gap filling.
But why those three libraries and not my _Intake library (where most of the counting is done), or moreover my _Test Library which is an overweight dog's breakfast on steroids. I mainly posted just in case someone else runs into a similar issue. It's easily fixed - assuming one knows about editable. BR |

Do you guys know if there is a way to add the wordcount generated to the tags, without adding them individually?

If you want to add the word count as a tag afterwards, you can probably do it with a bulk search and replace. And I'm with BR, why? |

If you have Calibre Companion on your phone, the details shows the Count Pages (configured) Fields
Ask in the CC forum how you can select by that |
