Does this plugin work with the ACSM Input plugin to give you an ePub on download of the .acsm file? If not, can you make it so your plugin does this?

There is an easy work around. Go to the metadata editor and click the button to update the metadata from the eBook. It's the icon that looks squarish with a pencil.

So, let's say I've already downloaded a book on another device, and I already have an empty book in my library (created by the other overdrive plugin, with corresponding library IDs).
Can I get this plugin to recognize that the book has been downloaded and then auto tag the empty book? |

Hello, a question here, if I have a hold, do I still need to go to Libby and borrow the hold first before it appears in the plugin? Does this plugin only automatically download borrowed books?

Just to be clear, the plugin does not automatically download borrowed books. You will have to select the loan and click on Download. |

Loving this plugin - thank you!
A request and a note. :-) Would it be possible to also have a "borrow and download" option to eliminate a few clicks (go to Holds tab, borrow, go to Loans tab, download)? If the "Hide books already in libary" box is checked, it will also hide books for which there is an empty book record (i.e. it might appear that you've downloaded them when you haven't). I don't know if there's any way for the plugin to determine/indicate whether there is actually a file attached to the record or not, but thought it worth noting. |
