Show the failed books in the main book list No longer working after update
Hello:
After updating to 3.13.0 the option "Show the failed books in the main book list after updating metadata" is no longer working for me

even if clicked Calibre just ignores that I've checked the box and does note display the failed books.

It used to work perfectly is it the update or I've changed something in the settings without knowing?

Works for me. You probably have this problem https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=237884

since showing failed books works by doing a search.

I Just want to say I Love Calibre, Amazing software. Thank You Thank you!

unfortunately its still not working i tried switching the options above on/ off combination of both. still Calibre totally ignores my request to see the failed books.

I tried restarting / software / PC.
Tried to activate the search for metatags from different situations but still!

It only happened after the update!

There have not been any changes to that part of calibre;s code in a very long time. (showing failed books works by marking the books i.e. little pushpin iicons appear next to the book numbers and then searching for marked books).

- select some books
- CTRL+D to search for metdata
- The results come back
- I click "Show the failed books in the main book list" check mark
- Nothing happens! it used to list the failed books

Not sure what i am doing wrong..

Regards,
