I might think of this the wrong way, so if this functionality already exists elsewhere, please set me on the right path. I usually finish a larger book in 2-3-....-100 reading sessions. My folder structure is quite large (large collection and all) so I have to remember what I was reading and where it is located (or search for it). It would be great if I could find what I was reading in a "On Deck" section in the homepage. Stuff could get there automatically (if you read more than 2 pages, let's say), but I won't mind a simple "Pin  to Deck" (and Unpin) / favourites / bookmarks, etc... Thank you!

Check out my app, it is a webview wrapper that gives Ubooquity viewing two additional features. Immersive fullscreen and swipe-to-turn page. I have been using it for a week and it makes a big difference in my viewing experience. Free, No ads or unnecessary permissions.

Due to request of Tom, I have renamed the app and included a non affiliation disclosure. I would like to learn more about Ubooquity and make a full client one day, so if anyone can post documentation I can read please provide it. I use your server software almost everyday and its been great so I would like to give back and contribute.

Could we have the ability to use metadata tagged with Calibre to group books by? Such as options to use Series rather than Author, or Series as a sub category under author?

Hello

Do you think it is possible in the future to have an option that allows us to manually set a flag read/unread on a comics or a pdf file ?

thanks

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?

Hi,

I like a lot Ubooquity but I miss a lot a "currently reading" list of comics. There is already a mod by lostndessence (on the Plex theme) with a currently reading status which is usefull but no way to see all these comics on the same page/list.

I took the moded Plex theme by lostndessence, added a mod (the deduplicator by me) and now I added 3 news features :

- show all currently reading comics

- show all comics already reads

- show comics you want to read

On the top menu, there is now 3 news icons. When you clic one, the local page get (in javascript) the reading status of all your comics (it can take a little time).

To use these new features, it is very easy :

- if a comic bookmark is at page 2, it is considered as "want to read",

- if a comic bookmark is at the last page, it is considered as "read"

- if a comic bookmark is between page 3 and last page - 1, it is considered as "currenly reading"

The "Currently reading" page

The "want to read" page

The "read comics" page

I made a little video to show how it works :

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS : 

To install the theme, just DOWNLOAD IT, unzip it in the "themes" folder of your Ubooquity program. I should look like :

and select this theme in the Ubooquity admin page :

And push "save ans restart" button on the top right of the admin page

Hope you will enjoy. Tell me if you find bugs. I'm using it on a regular basis for a month now.

Adding one or two of those suggestions make me feel very happy :)

- Read/unread status on the thumbnails

- or percentage of page already red

- Stars or notation with maybe an automatic purge for the worst.

- A kind of "safe for kid" flag (ok, i have already asked for it and you refused, but i dont find a way to manage folder properly for my little nephew :( ... and personnaly i'd like to access to my complete library without asking to myself if i'll read an adult or a kid book)

- Maybe an "ended serial" because it's always sad to start a story with no end ...

Tom, they are just ideas, it'll be great to find those features in the nexts releases but it's not an obligation. And be sure I really appreciate what you have already done for us. Thank you again Monsieur.

Tom, I just wanted to say Thank You. Not only for this program, but for sharing it with everyone, and for the awesome updates.

I've been loving this program as my Comic server for a while now, and there is nothing else out there that even comes close to comparing with Ubooquity.

Also, I've been trying to find a good audiobook server out there, but there aren't any. What I ended up doing was adding the directory to the Raw Files section of Ubooquity.  I download them at work when I'm on a new book, play them on Windows Media Player, and everything's super smooth.
