Advanced Features

Duplicate Chapters

-

Every now and then you find a manga that is translated by more than one group, because of this you get two releases for every chapter in the manga. This is very irritating because every time you finish a chapter, there is a second copy of the same chapter that pops up after it.

-

To automatically skip a translation group while reading, go to the manga's chapter list and click on the three dots in the upper right hand corner. From there, click on Sorting mode and select By chapter number. You won't see any changes but, when you start reading you'll automatically skip the duplicate releasescitation.

-

Source Migration

-

This is used when the source you are using is taken down or there are no plans to fix it, but it exists on other sources. It transfers all the data from that manga entry over to the other source with only needing for you to edit the title if the title on the source you're transferring from and the source you're transferring to do not have the same title.

-

To do this, you'll have to go to the top right corner of the library and press the overflow menu (3 dot menu), and tap Source Migration

-

Then, you scroll down to the source you're transferring from and tap select. Then scroll down to the title you're transferring and tap that.

-

After that, Tachiyomi will do a global search of all the sources you have installed and enabled. Change the search query if you're not able to find the manga you want.

-

Once you find the manga you want, you just tap it, check the parts of the manga data you want to transfer over, and you're done.

- -

Local Manga

-

To begin, you have to place your manga inside the folder Tachiyomi/local located in the root of your internal storage or external SD card, usually /sdcard and /storage/18F5-2C11 (with different values).

-

After that, they will be shown in the catalogue as a new source. Remember to give the app disk permissions on Android 6.0 and higher. If you add more chapters later you'll have to manually refresh the chapter list (by pulling down the list).

-

Supported chapter formats are directories with pictures inside, ZIP/CBZ, RAR/CBR and EPUB. But expect better performance with directories and ZIP/CBZ.

-

You can also place your chapters or manga in both storages and Tachiyomi will merge them. For example, with

-

/sdcard/Tachiyomi/local/my manga/ch1

-

and

-

/storage/18F5-2C11/Tachiyomi/local/my manga/ch2

-

the app will see two chapters in a single manga.

-

The path to the folder (or archive) with images must contain both the manga title and the chapter name (as seen above).

-

You can then access the manga in Catalogues > Local manga.
