It all seems to be working.

The only recent change is that I added the option to use a long-text column for the reading position. If you do so, it's suggested to set the column's 'interpret as' as short title.
Note that davidfor died several years back so this isn't under active development anymore. |

That's not related to what foosion asked, though.

Very sad. If I get a new Kobo and load all of the books that are in the old one (KePub format from Calibre), how would I set read position on the new device to mirror the old (sync)? Would I connect it to my computer and then click Update metadata in device library in Kobo Utilities (after connecting the old to make sure Calibre has up to date info)? Something else? |

Store books will sync their status from the server. If they're sideloaded, you can use store/restore reading position (I think there's also an option in Update Metadata) to put it back from the Calibre library.
EDIT: The option also works for Store books, however if you need to repair your account sometimes that changes it back. Last edited by ownedbycats; Yesterday at 06:37 PM. |

The first two Utilities options are - Update metadata in device library - Store/Restore current bookmarks Nothing else seem relevant. Is don't see "store/restore reading position". Is "current bookmarks" the same as "reading position" (I wouldn't have though so)? Is reading position part of metadata? |

Yeah, I meant current bookmarks - memory isn't the greatest, lol.
