Calibre not creating collections on Kobo ereaders

Josieb1 · 07-10-2016, 02:00 PM

Apologies if this is discussed elsewhere but I was wondering if anyone else is having problems with books loaded onto Kobo ereaders via calibre (I have a GLO HD and H20) not being loaded into collections?

I've loaded 40 books today over both devices but only 8 were added to collections. This is the first time I've added books since the updates last week to the kobo plugins. I don't know which plug in is responsible (sorry my Calibre was set up years ago) so don't really know how to search the issue.

I'd appreciate any information

Just updated to say I'm on 2.62 with updated plugins and it's still a problem.

Could you check the driver configuration? With the changes, it's possible something has been lost. Make sure that the appropriate collection management options are checked and that you have the columns set.

Also, check that "Metadata management" on the "Sending books to device" page of the preferences is set to automatic. That being changed is the most common reason for the collection management to suddenly stop.

Thank you David

That was the issue, somehow my Calibre lost the settings. All is working fine today.

Thanks again.
