Name of book shows up in the Footer
In the reading settings I have set the Footer on "Pages left in book".
These show up but also the name of the book. I have no use for that. I updated to the latest firmware.If I am correct this was not the case with the previous firmware. Can I switch the name of the book off somewhere?

There's a patch for this, perhaps you had that installed.

Normal behavior is the name of the book shows in the footer and the name of the chapter shows up in the header. There is a patch that will turn these off.

In the patches, it is in libnickel.so.1.0.0.yaml. Look for Remove title from reading header/footer. Change Enabled: no to Enabled: yes.

Be aware this removes the title and it removes the chapter name as well. I don't think you can keep one and lose the other.

if you do decide to patch please make sure you get the patch that matches exactly the firmware version you are using.
