Adding/removing books to the regular goal is broken in this test version. But you can test the custom challenges stuff.

I'll take a look at this later.

Thank you! Then I think I'll wait for the second test version

New feature:
- Custom challenges

• Challenges must be set within the current year
• Only ongoing challenges can have books added/removed
• The challenge progress is updated when one of its books reaches 100% within the set time frame

Thanks, thiago!

My internet connection at home is currently KO, but I will test the feature as soon as it's up and running again
In the meanwhile, thank you for all your work!

Nem option:
- Keep 'Rereading' color for finished books

Bug fixes:
- Fix a regression that caused an error when adding a book already present on another year
- Fix for the library association dialog being shown repeatedly

Information:
Multiple libraries are supported and each library has its own database file, but the custom columns used must always be the same. There is no library specific option for custom columns.

Add/remove bug is fixed.

You're welcome.

Suggestion: In Options > Customize Interface > Sort, add 'Date (asc)' and 'Date (desc)'.

Thanks for the report. It's fixed now.

I can add it. But you know you can sort it by any column, right? Just click in its header.

[thiago.eec]

New test version:

• Fix the bug for the metadata changed event
• Add an option to sort books by date
• Edit reading goal dialog: Add an 'All' option to the 'Year' dropdown menu. It will group all the years in a single view. Each book is only added once. So, if a book is present in multiple years, only the last one will appear in the list (with a reread counter, if 'Use reread shelf' is checked in the plugin config)

I've used it and the error I had before have disappeared, and the reread are appearing fine. Thank you very much.

yeah I know, I just prefer sorting by date (desc) as default

[ownedbycats]

Is there a way to add a previously-read book to 'want to read' of the current year? Setting percent to 0 didn't work.

Only if you are not using a 'Reareading' shelf.

apparently not, it will show up as rereading, regardless of having a 0 percent progress

[thiago.eec]

I'll take I look at this. Set a 0% book to 'Want to read', and then migrate to 'Rereading', when bigger than 0.
