[GUI Plugin] Reading List

[sable]

For future reference: I think I found the issue. I have a kobo and so I convert my epubs to kepubs. However, I had not properly set up fanficfare to also update the kepubs. In order to do that, you'll need to change the following settings:

- [X] Delete other existing formats

Unless you have any special reason for converting it manually, KoboTouchExtended will convert to kepub on-the-fly.

Indeed. But before I knew that, I did the converting manually via Calibre-web (which I've since also stopped using)

Edit: This is the template I'm using:

{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}

Take out {author_sort}. All it;s going to do is cause you to eventually have many empty directories. You can put a fixed subdirectory and put your books there. That's one less variable that can't be changed in order to put the updated book on your Kobo as the same book.

(After writing this I noticed it may come across as a brag or something, that's not at all how I meant for it to sound, but it's midnight and I've already taken my sleep meds so I'm not the brightest of lightbulbs right now )

But, then my books won't be in subdirectories for each author... I have read thousands of fanfics in my life, and plan to read thousands more with this ereader. Since I started reading on this ereader I've read about a dozen stories and have more than 100 queued and ready on my ereader, and I want to keep them all on my ereader, like my personal digital library, and not having folders for each author sounds like a nightmare...
