Displaying goodreads rating in calibre-web

The Holy · 11-27-2022, 11:47 AM

Hello!

I'm using the goodreads metadata plugin to get goodreads rating and votes into to custom columns following these instructions:https://github.com/kiwidude68/calibr...custom-columns

The problem is that they are displayed as identifiers in calibre-web instead of as numbers, like the page count for example. I tried playing around with the identifiers (grrating, grvotes) as floating point numbers but got nowhere.

So I want the values displayed like pages, and I don't want them vivible among identifiers at all.

This is how it looks in calibre-web

Calibre-web can't show columns that are of the type "Columns Build from other Columns" it's in the Wiki FAQ here and it's showing grrating and grvotes in the id field there because that's where they are in Calibre.

I'm not sure but the Action Chains plugin might be able to copy the information from the grrating and grvotes ids to a new column (integer) then delete those ids from the id field. That should give you lines that look like the pages entry and remove the items from the identifiers area.

The people over in the action chains thread will be able to help you work out how to do that.
