Of course I didn't save the error for posterity. But, I can recreate it at a later date (am going to be super busy for the next few days.)
I suspect that it is a true edge case: I think it'll only happen if all devices are deleted out of the config file, and config is set to configure each device independently. Thanks for your thoughts re: goodreads as well, I'll noodle around about it next week! |

Update to version 2.6.0
I have just released version 2.6.0 of the plugin. This has the changes I released in a beta a month ago plus one fix. The changes are:
The option for setting the "Date Added" on the device will affect the "Recent" and "Date Added" sorts. If you add books to the device as you add them to calibre, these sorts will reflect the order the books were put on the device. But, if reload the device after a factory reset or signing out of an account, or buying a new device, these sorts will basically show the books in title order. The "Date Added" option allows you to set the date for the books on the device from calibre. The choices at the moment are; "Date" (usually the date the book was added to the library), "Modified Date" (when the metadata was last changed in the library) and "Published Date". The option for setting the "Reading Direction" is to set the page turning direction. When new books are processed by the device, it will get the reading direction from the book if possible. This works for sideloaded kepubs, but not other formats. With this option, you can set the reading direction to "RTL" (right-to-left) for CBR and CBZ formats and this will be respected. For other formats, it sets a default. I haven't really done enough experimenting to be sure how well this works for them. For kepubs, they can contain reading direction for each internal file. I think this overrides the default from the database or OPF, but if the file sets a direction, that will be used. The choices for this option are "Default", "RTL" and "LTR". I expect that using "RTL" will be the most common, but use "Default" if you need to undo the change. The French translation of the help was done by Frenchdummy earlier in the year. My thanks for that and my apologies for not adding it a lot sooner. As usual, calibre will announce the update in the next hour or so. And if anyone has any problems or suggestions, please report them here. |

There does seem to be an icon in the last column, but not the expected one. And none of the buttons below the list are enabled. Can you try clicking somewhere else in the list and then back on the device and seeing if any of the buttons become enabled? As to the backup still being run, do you have the backup configuration to be for individual devices? If you don't, then the backup is run whenever any Kobo device is plugged in. The device not being in the list is OK for that configuration. |

The only button that works is the one to rename the device. Even if you click in other parts of the window or uncheck the device it won't enable the other buttons. My configuration is for each device(but I just have one haha)but like I said the backing up is working fine. |

Btw I have a question I was looking for it on the forum and couldn't find help. There are some books that if add in my sdcard in the kepub format, if I start to read them and then turn the kobo off and on it won't show in the reading status anymore. But if I send it to the main memory it will show but it won't have those kepub's statistics. So I'd like to know if I can fix it. I already tried to use your other plugin to covert it to kepub and then send it but the same thing happen. Do you have any idea to help? Thx a lot |

I'm having this problem with Calibre:
calibre, version 3.7.0 ERROR: Errors while adding: Failed to add any books, click "Show details" for more information ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Failed to add the book: xxxx /Users/Desktop/Ebooks 4.1.15/xxxx.epub With error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/add.py", line 399, in add_book File "site-packages/calibre/db/legacy.py", line 224, in create_book_entry File "site-packages/calibre/db/cache.py", line 62, in call_func_with_lock File "site-packages/calibre/db/cache.py", line 1562, in create_book_entry File "site-packages/calibre/db/cache.py", line 1355, in set_metadata File "site-packages/calibre/db/cache.py", line 243, in reload_from_db File "site-packages/calibre/db/backend.py", line 834, in conn File "site-packages/calibre/db/backend.py", line 269, in __init__ File "site-packages/calibre/db/backend.py", line 313, in execute File "src/cursor.c", line 1019, in APSWCursor_execute.sqlite3_prepare File "src/statementcache.c", line 386, in sqlite3_prepare CantOpenError: CantOpenError: unable to open database file Is this a problem with Calibre or the epub file? I reloaded calibre but it made no difference, and also used the well-formed epub check on Sigil on the epub to check if the epub file was OK, no problem there. |

And it the icons changed the moment the theme was applied, it has nothing to do with the plugin update. If the icon is not explicit enough I will change it next time I update the icon theme. |
