Merged entries

When a title is published in several places or languages, merge them into one entry with every version inside.

Merge titles #

Start from wherever the titles are:

  • In the library, select the titles and choose Merge.
  • On a title's page, select Add to merge and pick the library entry to merge it into.
  • In Browse or a feed, press and hold a title and choose Merge into library...

Katari then lists the titles in the order the merged entry will show them. The one marked Root is the title the others join. Drag them into the order you want and select Merge.

Two editions, one entry

Change a merge #

Open the merged entry and choose ⋮ › Manage merge. Each title's ⋮ menu has Set as root, Remove, Remove from library and Open. Select Save to keep the changes.

A title that is part of a merge says This entry is part of a merged entry. on its own page, with buttons to open the merged entry or manage it.

To give the merged entry a name of its own, choose ⋮ › Set display name.

Manage merge

Unmerge #

Unmerge in Manage merge splits the entry back into its titles straight away, without asking.

Removing a merged entry from the library removes all of its titles together.

Merged entries from a source #

Some sources list a show's seasons as one title. It opens as a merged entry with the seasons inside, and adding it to the library adds them all.

  • In Manage merge, the source's seasons are locked. They follow the source: when it adds or drops a season, so does the merged entry.
  • You can still merge your own titles into it, and unmerge them again.
  • A season that is already in another of your merged entries stays there.
  • Seasons leave the library together, by removing the merged entry.

Read a merged entry #

  • The chapter list has a header for each title, with its source and chapter count. Select a header to fold that title away.
  • History and Updates name the title a chapter comes from when it differs from the merged entry's name.
  • The cover shows how many titles it holds. To hide that, turn off Merged entries under Cover badges in the library's display settings.
