Install the latest version of Calibre (4.12 as I type this). It was just all magically done for me, with some kind of abracadabra by Kovid, I'm assuming... I should donate again; it's been a few months. |

For series the series listing on the Kobo is nicer than the collections list. But now the series are are in both series and collections. In the Kobo driver's configuration window in the "Collections, covers & uploads" tab I have Collections checked, and the Collections columns box has "#myshelves, series" in it. I'm guessing that I should remove series from there. Is there any quick way to clean out all of the collections that contain series information?
A few moments later after I deleted series from that box and did an "Update cached metatadata on device and everything is correct; no series information in the collections. David and/or Kovid are on the job! |

I've dropped the series collections and all is well. I didn't have any series collections showing on the home screen. So I'm good to go with the new series feature.

Is there anything I need to have set in Calibre to make the magic happen? I updated the version on both the Kobo and Calibre and I do have Series info in Calibre on a number of sideloaded books. I have connected the Kobo to Calibre, waited, and nothing changes.The only things that are showing Series info on the Kobo are downloaded directly from Kobo, not via Calibre. Help!

To add another question:
Say I got Book One from Kobo and Book Two from Baen. In Calibre, both books are set to have the same series, yet on my Kobo, there are two series entries, each with a single book, even though the series names are identical. Is there any way to get them to group into the same series, despite one book being sideloaded? |

After fiddling with the series stuff some more, it seems that if I download the Kobo books to my device, sideload the non-Kobo books, then reconnect to Calibre, they will all match up in the proper series. Pretty clunky, but it works. I'm hoping there's some better means of automating this, but if not, I can manage.

I think the solution might just be to archive all of my Kobo purchases and manage everything through Calibre. I could even fix some of the series metadata errors in Kobo’s database (such as the Wheel of Time series). |

OK. It was set to manual so I changed it to automatic. Then I connected the Kobo, Calibre recognized the connection, I waited for about 15 minutes, ejected and disconnected, but there was no sign of any new series for my sideloaded books. I deleted one from the Kobo and reloaded it but again no change. Any idea what else I might be missing?

Did You set, in the kobo touch driver plugin in the form: "metadata on device and advanced" (or something like that) the flag of updating metadata on device?
