Covers disappearing in grid view but not in details book view
Hi,
strange things occurs today. My covers are disappearing in grid view but not in details book view. The shelve is stored localy. Windows 10. Calibre worked like a charm for me for 10 years. I bulk edited the metadatas and ask Calibre to define covers from epub file. It worked a few minutes but they are gone again. Anybody can help please ?

try restarting your computer. And what version of calibre are you on?

You say the shelve is stored locally. I assume that you mean the library is stored locally. Is the library also being synced to a cloud storage?

Not at home right now, i'll try tonight. I suspect one of the kobo (utilities) plugins to cause this issue because it started (i think) when i tries to get reading position sync between Calibre and My Kobo Clara HD. But maybe i'm wrong !

Yesterday, I restarted the PC. The "local" (on the PC's HD) seems fixed but the Dropbox Library is still broken, most of the covers have disappeared.

Strange behavior, i noticed that when i bulk edit the metadatas of all my books (in library 1), to repair the missing covers, it does the trick but it affects library 2, making covers disappear... Library 1 is on the HDD and Library 2 (duplicate) is sync via Dropbox sync tool.

It is safe to erase thecache completely as long as calibre is not running.

Thank you Kovid Goyal ! I think its a matter of cache because My Dropbox Library accessed through Calibre-web-server doesn't seem to have this issue, neither accessed through Calibre Sync on Android
