KOReader Books or Collections View?

iandol · Today, 07:23 AM

First off, thank you to the KOReader developers for a wonderful piece of software. I love the flexibility of tweaking the presentation of the text and all the other interface features.

I use Calibre to sync my EPUBs, and they are placed in author folders by default. In the Kobo or Plato top-level interface, the folders are not shown, only the EPUBs (a books view). In KOReader (not the history view but the file view), there is no equivalent view. Is there a way to see just the EPUB files, and ignore the folders?

EDIT: how can I add collections, I didn't find anything in the user guide or wiki?
EDIT2: I found how to add a collection, only when adding a book, not in the collections view...

Thanks in advance for any help!

There is no way to ignore the folders, but someone provided a related user patch that automatically adds all books to the Favorites, so they can be browsed in a flat view there:

While you're in a collection, you can tap the hamburger menu (top left) and select 'Add a book to collection'.
