Touch Quick question: Does the Nook not display sideloaded content under "new reads"?

rahulm · 07-05-2011, 09:46 PM

I see screenshots of the Nook Touch with about 3-4 books displayed under the "new reads" section on the homepage.

Right now, I'm using the SD card with the 30 free ebooks along with a few of my own sideloaded epubs. None of those show on the homepage.

Mine doesn't display sideloaded content, either. I have about 50 epubs loaded onto the device memory (no SD card) and, even though they're more recent than my BN books in the library, they don't show in the new reads. Interesting.

Unfortunately only purchased items show in the most recent list. As a result, I never go to the Home screen, it is a waste of space as far as I'm concerned.

If B&N had my sideloaded books showing there, I would go there and, who knows, I might find something interesting in the suggestions and buy it. As it is, 0 change of selling me anything.
