In your case, as there is one person using multiple devices, you can setup one profile with the device "* Any Device". But, the dialogs also have an option to choose a different profile. And the plugin automatically selects the profile for the connected device. That way they can fetch the reading status without clobbering the other persons status. And that is most likely used where different people are sharing the library. They are mainly there if to have each device updating to a different set of columns. The profiles in the configuration can be used for multiple devices. The dialog displayed has options to choose which direction and exactly what gets set.

The open book means "reading", the green tick is "read", the star means "to rate" on whatever site it came from or Goodreads and the blue arrow means is an in-progress story from some web site. I've attached a small screen shot showing this. For mine I also use the Reading List plugin and set some icons based on that. The rules can be a lot more complicated than that. There are ways to have it match several rules and display several icons. With these settings, it stops at the first match. The rules are processed from top to bottom.

That gives a good visual indication plus I can see how far through the book I am. Then add a second rule that shows a different icon if the percent read is greater than 0. First drop down: My percent read custom columnĪll that means is "if the percent read field is equal to 100, display the green tick in the percent read column without the value". For "read", I used the green tick that calibre uses in various places. These have to be added to the list using the "Add icon" button. Third drop down: Selected the icon to be displayed. Second drop down: My percent read custom column Go to the "Look & Feel" and then the "Custom icon" tab. Those I find useful in the list.įor the column icon, this is in the calibre preferences.
