And there is no reason to give two examples of using standard calibre columns. And, as much as I like Terisa, the tags column is the WORST column you can use for collections and hence the WORST example that someone could use. Quote:

That's a prejudice In the end, it's a poor column which only reflects the data you can add. For me, it stores ONLY my genre classification (inheritance of previous days): Mystery / Cozy, Romance / Paranormal... so it's very useful for collections in my case.

You should be OK on a Mark 6 device as the bad version seems to have been removed fromt he cache and the good version is now downloading.

I've finally gotten around to installing this firmware and the patches. Might take a bit to get used to it.

However, half my content comes from the calibre Fetch News feature, and I use the tags it creates as my shelves...so if I don't use the tags column for shelves, how can I get the news fetcher to put its tags in my custom column instead? |

You could use a "column made from other columns" with a template that only showed the tags if the book was a news article. |

Howevever, I've already got one that I'm no longer using that I needed for a device I no longer have, so it looks like that will get repurposed. I found I also have a template in my plugboard that manipulates tags during device send, but it looks like the kobo extended driver ignores that, which is unfortunate, because if it used it, I wouldn't need the custom column. |

In order to use Tags & Series, all that's needed to be done is to edit the Kobo Reader Device Interface driver. From Plugins in Preferences. When Customizing this plugin, click the Extra Customization tab. In the space for "Kobo supports several collections including Read, Closed, Im_Reading. Create tags for automatic management" put in tags, series. Of course, you can use other columns if you want.
