Calibre Server's search function

Clem2605 · Yesterday, 12:33 PM

Hello!

With the breakdown of CalibreSync, I've begun using Calibre Sever, and I have some issues with the search function.

When I try to search, I can only access the 'categories' shown in the tag browser. There is no option to search from other columns than those. Could it be possible to add an option to display more categories to search from?
On the same subject, could it be possible to add an option to hide empty categories like in the tag browser? I have some that are only populated when I have errors or I'm debugging something.

Also, it's impossible to edit a search? The only way I've been able to access the current search is to go into 'Search the text of the books' edit the search there, copy the result, return to the search option and paste. Could it be possible to just edit the current search?

I absolutely understand if it's not possible to do, but since it doesn't look like like big changes, I thought I'd try to post here.

Thank you so much!

perhaps try this direct url?

http://127.0.0.1:8080/#library_id=mylib&panel=book_list^search

must adjust the values (IP, library name and port)

WHEN i CLICK THE SERCH ICON (MAGNIFY GLASS) I SEE (sorry about the caps) all the sections that appear in the regular GUI Tag Browser (that includes my saved searches)

Are you logging in to the calibre server or using an anonymous connection?
