Does Calibre support AKA?

Cool Javelin · 04-15-2018, 02:55 PM

I have been adding some books lately, and find I sometimes get a book with two titles. The title may be something like "This Title aka That Title."

It would be nice for Calibre to index on both titles. Does it do that?

Thanks, Mark.

No, but there is nothing stopping you from making a custom column

for it.

Unfortunately, grouped searches dose not appear to accept {title}, so easy automated Similar searching is not available

Actually, grouped search terms do accept title even though it isn't included in the drop-down list. Type it in manually.
