Hi,

Is there any plan so support new Kobo Touch shelves (creation, adding books to ...) in a future release or pluggin ?

Thanks

I'd like to know that, too. Would be fantastic if the shelves would be supported - or at least the firmware 2.0+ at all (read a lot about problems so now don't dare to update my Calibre since it seems to work at least for now...).

If you have updated your firmware then calibre, at any version, is not safely supporting directly updating the kobo database. Newer versions of calibre simply inform you of this fact via a warning message. Additionally for safety sake the newer version of calibre also prevents calibre's kobo driver from attempting to update the newer database. Books still transfer to your device.

From Calibre's What's Up change log.

Bug Fixes

Kobo driver: Do not perform write operations on the Kobo database if its version is newer than the latest version the driver supports, for safety
