@yonkjunior - the PI works for me on 2.85.1
I suspect the reading list configuration data is corrupt, which is in the library database. So its not easily fixed, especially if its happening at start up. Does this happen when you start calibre or when you use PI? BR |

You can try fixing this by adding the list again. To do this, go to the plugins page of the calibre preferences and find the plugin. Select it and press the "Customize plugin" button. The missing list is called "#On", so add a new list with that name. Set any of the other options you want and then save the changes. When Hopefully that will fix the problem. If it doesn't, there is a way to clear the configuration or edit it more directly that should work. |

Hello, is there a way to have my Lists to show as a column on the left? Along with Authors, Tags, Genres etc.etc?
Or the only way I can view the lists is through the plug-in from the toolbar? Thanks! |

Ah, thanks BR, I'm trying and trying and can't get it to happen.
I created a column called Lists, then I imported a list from Goodreads with the plugin, then with the Reading Plugin I got all the books, and also the empty ones I don't have yet. Then, I went to the settings and just as you show in the preview I selected my list like you have Math 101, then I selected the #readinglist as you show too. And I typed on the value in column to add/remove the title of the List I want to add as you also have Math 101. I click ok and nothing happens. My "Lists" column is empty. Do I have to just mark every book in my list and just drag and drop them into the List column I created? But then it would be just these books from one list. I want the column list to drop down and have many lists I'm gonna create. Sorry and thanks in advance! |

But, I don't actually used those options on my real libraries. For Reading Lists I do everything via the Reading List drop down menu, which I access from the book list context menu (see attachment). I'm mouse averse so I don't use the Tag Browser much. Unfortunately the developer of the plugin has 'retired', but hopefully someone who uses the PI and the Tag Browser will chime in.

@Samurai: What BR suggested works here. But, you messed up the timing
The column is only set when you add or remove books from the list. If you did it in the order in your post, the column won't have been updated for the books. If you add another book to the list, it should get the desired value in the column. To fix this for all the books already on the list, view the list, select all the books and use the "Move to list..." function to move the books to the same list. |

Nice. Thank you. I was looking for something very simple to manage books into bookmarks covering the entire library, like Firefox, chrome. Drag & drop (or context menu) selected books into folder(s). This seems closest to that.
For such a powerful program as Calibre, the book marks across entire library seems like it would be one of the basic features. |

I don't know if this is a bug in Calibre or a bug in the plugin.
I add the books to the list that's to be auto added to my Reader. I then view the list. I see the pins next to each title. Then I go back to the full library list and I still see the pins. So far so good. I plug in my Reader and the books get sent and the selections deselected. The pins still show even though the book are no longer part of the list. The pins should not be showing.# So is this a problem with the plugin or Calibre? |

Jon - I think its the same issue as Find Duplicates exemptions, have a look in the database preferences opf file and you may find some book numbers listed pertinent to your RL.
Kiwidude devised a means to persist the Marks some of his plugins created. Remember the plugins were written well before Marks were shown in the book list as Frat Pins, and he'd already 'retired' when that happened. I'm not sure about RLs usage of persistent Marks, but I know that FD's exemptions have their Marks re-established when a library is opened. RL probably does the same. BR |

BR, I'd say you are right. The RL plugin shows the books in a list by marking them and then showing the marked books. The marks stay on the books until something removes them. It's a little untidy, but I haven't seen that it cause any problems. It's been like that for as long as the plugin existed. I'd say it will stay like that until someone demonstrates it breaks something, or they fix the code themselves.

It's the same issue as the Count Pages plugin not updating the book details after a count was done/updated. Nothing was causing an error. It was just a slight annoyance. Same thing here.
