unread flag
Thanks to Ubooquity ;-) my library becomes bigger and bigger, and therefore I get used to lost if I read one or another comic.
Could their be a flag added in the db, associated to each item, to say if you read it or still have to?
This would have to be per ubooquity user.
I'm expecting such feature to be not only appreciated by me in the community :-)
PS: a "tag as read/unread" feature, for an item or folder, would have also to be added, to close the loop.
Let us know! :-)
Cheers,
Mat

Sorting order issue with OPDS feeds
The sorting order in OPDS feeds is bizarre. All my files are named using the the same pattern
...\<Serie>\<Serie> - <Number> - <Title>
In OPDS feeds, I don't see the full filenames, only the titles. So I'm assuming Ubooquity is reading the metada and presenting the user with just the titles. It's nice, but it creates a problem when sorting the files:
If OPDS was using file names, I would see "Talon - 01 - clacla" before "Talon - 02 - blabla"
And I see blabla first and clacla second => OPDS is sorting the titles by alphabetical order instead of using the number.... even though it's reading the metada of the file and is certainly able to read the number!
Is there a trick to get Ubooquity sorting in the proper order (namely by number in the serie) ? I use Comicrack to write the metada.: maybe there is a special way to tag cbz files ?
User data stored on server - recent files, last reading position, read/unread, favorites, tags
This would be very useful. I think recent files and last reading positions are most crucial. Can be implemented through a sql database that maps this data to filepaths
Books can open to reading position when viewed (as a toggle-able feature)
Recent files can be one of the sections on the main landing page
User-defined tags can be parsed in search
Sort by Date Published
Howdy Ubooquity Team!
Firstly, I just wanted to thank you for all of your great work! I can't even begin to imagine all the hours and work that have gone into designing Ubooquity...
I was curious if sorting by "Date Published" was something that may be in the works? I currently have my comic books in CBZ format with metadata (scraped from ComicVine) written into the archive itself. Is Ubooquity able to read this metadata and use the date published for sorting?

Open Source Ubooquity
Hi,
I really appreciate your work on ubooquity, and would be eager to collaborate on improving it. you mentionned in a couple of places that you may consider making ubooquity open-source, have you made progress on the idea? There are a lot of features that could be implemented/improved and I'm sure it could go faster if we went collaborative on ubooquity
Improved comics reader
Perhaps also allow splitting doubles pages for better display.
Reading two Pages at once...
I'd would be perfect to have two pages side by side an do a little up and down scrolling.. or to buy a larger monitor of course... or buy one having a pivot function... sigh... ;)
Web reader full screen
Would it be possible to add:
<meta name="mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
Thanks,
So, I tried implementing this. Not as easy as it sounds.
Well, for Android it was, the following line did the trick:
<meta name="mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
But for iOS, it's not that simple (as usual). Although there is a configuration that do launch the web browser in fullscreen mode:
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
as soon as you click a link you are redirected to Safari.
I tried to change programmatically the location of the page each time a link is clicked (to stay in fullscreen mode), but it broke some parts of Ubooquity.
Bottom line: you'll have fullscreen on Android in the next release but not on iOS.
Feature Request - Include option to display comic issue #
Example - Here the display shows the comic title from the metadata scrapped
Notice here the issue number which was in the file name is no longer displayed. The issue number is in the image, but it is very hard for the users to see issue # from the thumbnail
Proposed
Here the user can quickly identify the issue number that they are looking for when browsing comics. They may also prove beneficial in searching large collections
Notice while performing a search the user has no idea which issue number they are looking at
