Can you force Book Jacket Tags to show in alphabetical order?
GOAL: to get the metadata book jacket that I use to show the tags in alphabetical order.
Currently, they show in the order in which they were entered. I've searched the manual in many different ways but do not find anything close to this. I figure since it shows them alphabetically in the column and book details displays, there might be something to easily force this in the coding of the jacket template and stylesheet. I just don't know how to modify {tags} if so. Anyone with an idea on this? Last edited by jecilop; 09-01-2014 at 07:13 AM. Reason: clarifying title as a question, clarifying where to force |

Offered solution not working.
@kovidgoyal,
I was jumping with glee until I tested it. It returns an error. Yes, I spelled alphabetical correctly :-) Error returned: Python function terminated unexpectedly 'unicode' object has no attribute 'alphabetical' (Error Code: 1) Per your link: + <!-- If you want the tags to be alphabetical, change {tags} to + {tags.alphabetical} --> In my template: </tr> <tr class="cbj_tags" align="left"> <td class="cbj_comments" colspan="2" align="left"><b>{tags_label}:</b> {tags.alphabetical}</td> </tr> Seems like it should be simple, but this is what's happening. ????? |

You need to wait for the next calibre release.

Yes.
{tags.alphabetical} is a trigger for the new code, but until the new code is part of your calibre installation, it is a trigger for something that does not exist. Hence "has no attribute 'alphabetical' ". |
