Fred Slota Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Parts 2-7, Agony, Lasher, etc, indicia reads as title and subtitle with a separating colon,, as in "Extreme Carnage: Agony" Parts 1 & 8, Alpha and Omega, indicia reads as a single title with no colon, as in "Extreme Carnage Alpha" Please correct the title for part 8, "Extreme Carnage Omega" without the colon. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Slota Posted October 14, 2021 Author Share Posted October 14, 2021 Okay, I see that the change has been implemented. Looking in my log file, a new title has been added, new issues added, and old issues deleted. I also see that, as expected, the issue I indicated I own was not deleted, and the old title was not deleted. Question: Isn't there supposed to be a listing in the log of unmatched items? I'm about to do my major merge of a year or two's worth of acquisitions and would like to bring everything in line with the official database. I'm sure that there are others that have crept in.

Mark J. Castaneda Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 If you have any instock numbers under the old title name they will remain even after an update. you need to manually zero-out the instock number under the older title name and apply to the proper title name. The next time you update, the older title name will be removed if you have the 'remove obsolete title' update option selected. as for your follow up question, that would be a No with new database format we introduced in CB2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The unmatched items won't show up in your log, but there *is* a list of unmatched items and titles that is generated every time you run a content update on your database. Look for a link to that list in the pop-up window you get at the very end of your content update (the window that lists out current collection value, etc).

Fred Slota Posted October 14, 2021 Author Share Posted October 14, 2021 I get updates by Sidekick. Do I need to turn that off so I can get the next update manually? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven L. Dasinger Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 In CB, try selecting Menu item Internet->Check for Updates. It should bring up the window you get after an update and the Unrecognized Items like should be there (if you have any that don't match). At least it does for me but I update through CB and not sidekick. But I thinks it should still work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Slota Posted October 14, 2021 Author Share Posted October 14, 2021 Just ran "Check for Updates", Change $0.00, so everything was up to date from the last Sidekick update. I have a lower right button for "Collection Value Graph", and a pair of lower right buttons for "Top Gainers and Losers" and "See What's New". "See What's New" opens the last log file from the Sidekick update 4 days ago. No links that I can see. So, I guess I'll disable Sidekick for a few days, unless there are other thoughts...

Steven L. Dasinger Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 One last thing. See if the actual Log file for Unknown Item exists. It should be located in: C:\Users\<logon-id>\Documents\Human Computing\<ComicBase Edition>\Log Files With a file name of: <your-database-name> Unknown Items <date-time of update> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
