Full changelog
Highlights
- KOReader plugin improvements - Several quality-of-life additions to the KOReader plugin: bulk book selection and download in the catalog, skip automatic progress sync when offline, a system action shortcut to jump to your BookOrbit dashboard, device removal and unmatched book tracking surfaced in the settings panel, and manual book hash linking to resolve unmatched books without a full rescan.
- Custom icons support - Libraries, shelves, and collections can now display custom icons, letting you personalise your library at a glance.
- Rich text description formatting bar - The book description editor now has a formatting toolbar. Bold, italic, links, and lists are all available without leaving the metadata panel.
- Kobo device sync history - A new sync history view in the Kobo settings panel shows the timestamp and outcome of every past sync session, making it easy to diagnose sync problems.
-
Import Booklore reading state - Users migrating from Booklore can now import their reading progress and history directly, so your reading journey carries over intact.
-
Custom metadata fields in table view - Custom fields defined for a library now appear as sortable columns in the book table view.
-
Book Dock work queue and adaptive heap - Book Dock processing now runs through a managed work queue to prevent pipeline overload. The Node.js heap is also auto-sized based on available memory, reducing OOM crashes on memory-constrained servers.
-
Public API documentation (Swagger) - A Swagger UI is now available at
/api/docsfor exploring and testing the public REST API.
