New #Documentation: Installing #KOReader onto a #Kobo

Having gone to the effort of setting up Booklore, I realised that its Kobosync was unable to send PDFs to the Kobo :(

This post talks about installing KOReader onto the Kobo so that #ebooks (and PDFs) can be pulled using OPDS (opening up access to things like Project Gutenberg in the process)

It also goes through installing #NickelMenu so that menu items can be customised

Super excited that our Kobo e-readers arrived yesterday! I set up my remote, added all of my ebooks via Calibre, tweaked a bunch of settings, installed and configured NickelMenu, and installed KOReader for future investigation. Lots more to learn, but wow this is fun! 📚

Instalación de NickelMenu en Kobo Clara 2E

El lector de libros electrónicos Kobo Clara 2E es el segundo que tengo de la marca, antes solía tener el Clara HD. Hasta el momento he estado muy contento con ambos (el Clara HD lo tiene alguien de la familia), son dispositivos que no intentan reinventar nada, y justamente por eso funcionan tan bien. Llevo usándolo durante años y la experiencia ha sido muy buena: todo está donde tiene que estar, y nada estorba.

A question for people using #Kobo - preferably with Libra Colour:

Have you tried #NickelMenu?
If yes, is it useful?
Are there any downsides?

#Kobo #Elipsa friends on #Bookstodon

How safe is installing #NickelMenu on you Kobo?

Does it break with firmware updates?
Does it break the Kobo at the same time?
What’s been your experience?

Thank you all!

Editing to add, I’m doing this, because I want textshots more often now. and I’ve gotten tired of shooting the page with my phone

If y'all are running #NickelMenu on your Kobo, you can add this line to your `.adds/nm/config` file to get a browser popup with the Send to Kobo page already loaded:

menu_item : main : Send to Kobo : nickel_browser : modal: https://send.djazz.se/

Works like a charm!

Send to Kobo/Kindle

#kobo folk of the fediverse, I got a new elipsa 2e. safe to use #nickelmenu on it?
