Display collections in alphabetical order on Kobo Aura
My Kobo Aura doesn't display my collections in alphabetical order.
Is there a way to force it doing so? PS: If this were possible, I could devise special collections to appear on the second page of my collections, eg: ZZ_Novels_AE, ZZ_Novels_FJ, ZZ_Novels_KO, ZZ_Novels_PT, ZZ_Novels_UZ This way, I could have access to hundreds of novels divided into subgroups, while keeping on the first page of My collections on the Kobo Aura the collections that interest me most. My Aura seems to display 9 collections per page, not more. |

There are 3 sorts
Collection name, date created, number of books. Select sort and select collection name. If this doesn't work, select a different sort first, then do it again. Should be ok. |

There are no such options on my Kobo Aura when I look at My collections.

This is a known issue with some recent f/w upgrades to the Kobo f/w. Does this thread help ? https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=234942

I have an Aura Hd
Right under My collections (upper leftish) has Sort: Collection Name. Should be the same. If not maybe call Kobo? Helen |

Call Kobo is probably is a bad idea.
There is no option on the Kobo Aura. But the thread indicated by PeterT helped -- thanks! Could I change another parameter of Kobo eReader.conf to display more than 5 titles per page in a collection? |

Why the hell doesn't Kobo think about such things? |

By the way, I changed some other parameters in Kobo eReader.conf, I don't remember which.
But now, when my Kobo Aura goes to sleep, it displays the cover of the last book I looked at, instead of the logo of Fnac (I bought the Kobo in France). More precisely: on top, it says "Sleeping"; on bottom it writes "xx% read"; and in the middle it displays the cover of the book. That's cool! Last edited by 8140david; 04-14-2014 at 07:17 PM. |

You probably changed the Affiliate from FNAC to something else.

1. Connect Kobo Aura HD to computer
2. In Windows Explorer open KOBOeReader 3. Open .kobo 4. Open Kobo 5. With Notepad open Kobo eReader.conf 6. Under LastLibrarySorter_books_filterByPreviews%28%29=sor tByNewest () Add a new line: LastLibrarySorter_shelfList_=sortByShelfName () 7. Close Notepad and Save. 8. Eject eReader. Power it off and on. You will now find you can sort My collections by: - Collection name - Number of Books - Date created Good Luck Rosalene Last edited by Rosalene; 05-17-2014 at 03:45 AM. |
