Add Metadata Source to Search

skidrow2u · 02-09-2012, 09:53 PM

Does anyone know how to add a new metadata source to search to Calibre? I would like to add www.fantasticfiction.co.uk, but can't figure out how. Thanks!

Preferences > Metadata download and then check the Fantastic Fiction box in the first column.

@skidrow2u - welcome to MobileRead.

I am guessing you have not installed the FantasticFiction metadata download plugin. You can do this from either the Preferences->Get new plugins menu option or from the button on the Preferences -> Plugins screen.

Once it is installed, Synamon is quite correct in that you can toggle enabling the plugin from the Metadata download preferences screen.

Thank you both so much! (And what a dork I am for missing that!) I'm so glad my co-worker told me about Calibre - as you can tell, I'm a very new user, but I LOVE it.
Thanks again!
