### Mass add books
Invalid SSL configuration
It's possible to upload several books at once by selecting more than one file. The limitation is the upload size of the calibre-web interal server (several hundred megabyte). Another posibility is via a normal shall script by watching a folder content. Prerequisites for the example below is a installed calibre program. The script has to be called regulary (cron job). The script watches for content in the supervised path, calls calibre to add the files in the folder to the library and deletes the files in the last step from the source folder.
Mass add books
``#!/bin/bash
if [ "$(ls -A [folder to watch] )" ]; then
calibredb add -r "[folder to watch]" --library-path="[path to calibre library]"
rm [folder to watch]/*
fi``

Registering
Non ASCII Filenames, including author names (containing korean, chinese, ... characters) are changed to a transliterated representation. This is an exact copy of the behavior of calibre.
### Invalid SSL configuration
I case you entered invalid key files for accessing calibre-web through https, the ssl configuration can be overridden using the commandline arguments "-c" and "-k". The file locations can than be corrected in the web-UI.
### Arrange and fill Shelfs
Shelfs can be filled book by book on the corresponding detail page. Books can be massadded from the result of an adavned search. Third option for adding many books at one time to a shelf is using a script like the [cps-mass-adder script](https://github.com/OzzieIsaacs/cps-shelf-adder). The order of books in a shelf can be rearranged on the shelf edit page via drag 'n drop.
