I'll implement that and EPUB3 subtitle metadata afterwards. @davidfor, do you know if there is a reason why Calibre doesn't seem to support standard EPUB3 metadata at all (even if it's in addition to it's own format)? Last edited by geek1011; 07-22-2020 at 11:32 AM. |

There's a fair bit of ePub 3.something OPF features supported: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...tadata/opf3.py
I can definitely vouch for the Cover & Series stuff, since that was what I double-checked the last time I looked at this ;p. Last edited by NiLuJe; 07-22-2020 at 01:32 PM. |

Thanks for the info, @jackie_w, @NiLuJe.

I guess most ebooks I've seen which were created/modified with Calibre were EPUB2 (either actually EPUB2 or a book which declared a EPUB3 books as EPUB2 for ... reasons), so it didn't write/read those. I should probably take another look at Calibre sometime soon to have a better idea of its current state and to get familiar with how it currently works. ___ I'll have subtitle support (calibre #subtitle column, EPUB3 refined title) finished by next week at the latest (first, I'm going to finish my work on NickelHook).

@geek1011: Ah, the joys of Debian....
![]() (Jokes aside, Calibre is notoriously awfully handled by downstream distributions. To make a long-story short, if you're not running Arch, use Kovid's binary package unless you know what you're doing). |

- "datatype": "text" - "is_multiple": null And "#value#" will either be a string, or "null". I don't think any other column type makes sense. Except... Maybe the tags. I think some people are putting the tags in the subtitle. That makes them visible and searchable on the device. That would mean reading all the dc:subject entries in the OPF. |

![]() Works like a charm! Thanks a lot. For the record, my setup is as follows: My Calibre 'title' column is formatted as <maintitle>:<subtitle> I use a plugboard to fill the Kobo Title with '{title:list_item(0,: )}' I have a custom column '#subtitle' which is 'built from other columns' with '{title:list_item(1,: )}' as a template. I use '{#subtitle}' as a template to fill the Kobo Subtitle in the extended driver. NickelSeries does the rest ![]() ![]() |

This is great news! Surely many have been waiting for this functionality for a long time. But for some reason it doesn't work for me: the metadata does not appear, although SeriesMeta works fine with the same books.
