Dear Terisa, do you think it would be possible to add an option for the file's created/modified date? I'd find that super useful, if it's not too much work...

Sorry, but I don't think so, as you don't have information in the plugin level about the file itself but only the name and path.

A quick question. If I am adding a book and the book exists already so it is merged... will the filename still copy to the filename field?
Another question: For some reason when I copy the library structure, the column for the OriginalFilename doesn't copy. Is there a reason for this? All of my other custom columns copy to the new empty library structure. Last edited by LadyKate; 11-12-2016 at 12:24 AM. Reason: added another question |

@Terisa de Morgan - I have library A and library B, and both have a similar 'filepath/File Path' column. If I copy books from library A to library B the column 'filepath/File Path' values are retained if they're not empty, but they're empty the column in library B gets a path in the Temp directory.
@LadyKate - would your additional problem be related to this ==> Bug #1641278 “Custom columns don't copy on create new library” BR |

No, not that I know. Yesterday, indeed, after seeing this comment, I moved a book from a library with this column to a library without it, and calibre asked me to copy the column. |

I don't display the file path in the target library book list or book details sidebar, which is why its taken me so long to spot this. BR Last edited by BetterRed; 11-13-2016 at 04:23 AM. |

Hi Terisa,
there is a bug in your code. Consider the following filename: 2008 - Handbook of Motivation Science - Shah, James & Gardner, Wendy L. (eds)-[Guilford].pdf It is imported as: filename: 2008 - Handbook of Motivation Science - Shah, James & Gardner, Wendy L Extension: (eds)-[Guilford] This other filename: 2009 - Building Motivational Interviewing Skills - David B. Rosengren.pdf It is imported as: filename: 2009 - Building Motivational Interviewing Skills - David B extension: Rosengren You are probably searching for the first DOT from the start of the filename, while you should search for the first DOT from the end of filename... or you are using a wrong regular expression. Also, I see that the original extension as been truncated, so you are using some kind of code were you drop everything there is in the filename after the second dot and the second dot too... I suppose today I have lost a lot of information while importing +3000 books ![]() (261 book with wrong/partial information which I already have deleted ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by Giuseppe Chillem; 12-03-2016 at 08:25 PM. |

Hi,
a last problem: Some books have the temp path as extracted path: An example: "C:\Users\Familia\AppData\Local\Temp\calibre_omm2o x\rsdo8k_add_books\482" Last edited by Giuseppe Chillem; 12-04-2016 at 01:46 AM. |
