Kobo shelf for a specific tag

shoelesshunter · 08-07-2020, 12:25 AM

I have a custom column, #genre, which is synced up with Kobo's shelf management.

It works fine, however I have a lot of books tagged "Short Fiction" and I would like just this one tag to appear as a shelf on the device as well.

The collections are made from the values of the columns in the driver. These can be a custom column using a template. So, you could create a column that just returned the tags you want collections for. You could do this with the following template:

Code:

program:
list_intersection(raw_field('tags'),'Short Fiction,Some Other Tag',',')

The second parameter is a comma separated list of the tags that you want collections created for.

Or you can create another tag-like column and use it for the collections that might not fit with the data in other columns.
