Change Author of "Create a Catalog" instead of "Calibre"

TinkerToyz · 10-18-2020, 05:31 PM

When I use the "Create a Catalog of the Books in Your Library" the system creates the catalog with my selected title. However the system does not seem to allow me to change the author of the catalog during the create process.

I can edit the catalog after it is added to Calibre and change it there but I would like to change the default from "Calibre" to "TinkerToyz".

Is there a setting or ini file or registry entry that can be changed?
Thanks.

If it is an EPUB, simply edit it as you would any other book.

Yes I mentioned that I can edit the the author entry after the catalog has been created and auto entered into Calibre. I was hoping to change the default so that every time I create a catalog the entry in Calibre is NOT by author "Calibre" but authored by myself.
