Wanna remove Series stuff from Collections (but keep them in MyBooks>Series)
I noticed that all of the series I've created in Calibre show up on my Kobo Forma in two places:
1. My Books > Series 2. My Books > Collections I don't like seeing all of the Series stuff in Collections, since 1. I can see the Series in "My Books > Series", and 2. It adds another 10 pages to "My Books > Collections". How can I remove Series stuff from Collections? |

Take a look at the Collections, covers & Uploads tab in the KoboTouch driver configuration. Remove series from the Collections columns: box.

Thank you, David.
I'm using KoboTouchExtended driver. My KoboTouch driver is disabled. I think I did this because KoboTouchExtended does everything that KoboTouch does, plus more. I removed "series" from the Collections columns box as you suggested. Now let's see how long till I see all series removed from collection. |

Personally, I don't use the KoboTouchExtended driver, I find it easier to convert the few ebooks with images I might want to zoom using kepubify. RMSDK has fewer glitches with how it handles fonts though the automatic replacement for characters not in the current font is an attractive feature. |

But when I read an ePub on my Nook, the layout almost always looks better. |

And one other trap that I always get caught by, you need to have at least one column specified for the collection management. If there are no columns in the field, the driver doesn't do anything with the collections. That is partly historical, but, it is also for safety. |

KePub rarely adds anything useful. It mostly adds things that are useless such as one screen equals one page and forced larger line height to remove cutting off the top/bottom lines. So most eBooks I read will be ePub.

If the option isn't selected, collections with no books in them will be left alone. If the option is selected, collections with no books in them will be removed.
