I'm pretty sure that if you use the archive option, it won't remove it from the other device. In that case, the details of the book are kept on the device, but not the actual file. The book lists have a filter to hide the archived books.

If you want to sort books in library on your Kobo Reader touch above colume of covers "by Title" then pop up list has Recently Read, Title, Author,..... I use Kobo store and desk top app so little don't much about it but author search worked for me.

I've had two Aura HD's (brown) this week, both were returned because of a bright pinprick almost slap bang in the middle of the screen. I should get the second replacement on Monday or Tuesday. I've asked the store if it was possible for them to check it but they're not allowed to break the seal of new product so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
If this third unit also has pinpricks I'll see if I can get it exchanged for a black one, I assume the black one sells quicker than the brown one and with the theory that newer units have less defects I might get lucky with a black one. |

My shelves will stay sorted by author if that is what I choose. For example, if I choose shelf A to be sorted by author, shelf B sorted by recently read, and library sorted by file type, they each remain that way until I choose to change the sort for the individual shelf or for the library. Changing the setting in one does not effect another. Last edited by llcj; 10-19-2013 at 08:02 AM. |

The moving and disappearing tile thing happened after I was trying to change the sort order in the config file. I don't think the currently reading shelf has ever moved, but everything else moves around randomly and some are just gone. Obviously I could fix this if I actually cared Helen |

Ah, gotcha. I can see how you'd be a little frustrated.

More like I just don't care anymore Obviously I still care a little, but not like I used to. Less depressing and I can use the energy I used to spend raging at Kobo far more productively raging at Revenue Canada

I'll try soon to delete one and sync afterwards. I'll let you know if the book is deleted automatically from the second ereader, but somehow I doubt it. |

An alternative is to use the "Order series shelf" option I added to my utilities plugin last week. But, that needs the shelves sorted by date added. Updating the conf file is probably something I should add. |

The default is by title. I wanted to sort by author. I remember changing all of the sortByTitle() to sortByAuthor or whatever it had in the config file for the shelves I had changed.
Unfortunately I had a hard drive failure so the files (I saved a copy of each one as I went along) are no longer available. Maybe I will dust of the Aura tomorrow and take a look. I will probably try the Order series option as well, just haven't really bothered as I rarely use it. Whatever I did, didn't really seem to hurt anything, just made the main screen slightly more random which amused me for a bit. Thanks for the suggestions |

Kobo threads always make me hungry because everybody keeps talking about kebabs. kepubs. kebabs. Too bad I decided on the PW2 in the end. No kebabs for me.
