My Genres won't list in my catalogue - only tags!
Dear all I hope you can help. When I create a catalogue (mobi output) I want to have "genres" as one of the sections. However, I keep getting "Tags" data listed. The section title says "genres" but the data has come from my "tags".
I've tried to ensure that I check all the lists I want. My genres have things like "Drama.Action", Drama.Thriller", "Historical" etc. How do I get my catalogue to include my genres and NOT include all the tag data? Any help would be appreciated...this is driving me nuts!! |

Many thanks for you kind reply. It seems to make sense. Now.....is there a way to copy all my custom "genres" columns data into the "tag" columns using a script........:0)

Highlight all of your books and go to the edit metadata window and use the Search and replace tab. If you want the tag column to just have the new info from your genre column you might want to remove all tags first using the metadata window and checking Remove all next to remove tags.
