Copy the files (CBZ, CBR, PDF or EPUB) into the drive's media/comics folder, for example with the file browser. Give every series its own folder: Komga treats one folder as one series. In Komga, in the menu on the left, select the three dots next to the library name and choose „Scan library files”. New books show up on the „Home” page, in the „Recently Added Books” row. Read in the browser Komga remembers where you are, so you can go on on any device. In the menu on the left, open „Libraries” and choose a series. Select a book, then select „Read”. Later, the „Keep Reading” row on the „Home” page takes you back to where you stopped. You can also mark a book by hand: in its menu, choose „Mark as read”. Add a family member Everyone reads with their own account, so everyone keeps their own reading progress. In the menu on the left, in the „Server” group, open the „Users” page. Select the plus sign and fill in „Email” and „Password”. Under „Roles”, leave the boxes as they are; tick „Administrator” only for an adult. Select „Add”, and give them the e-mail address and the password. Group series into a collection You can put series that belong together into a collection, for example all the works of one author. Open the menu of a series and choose „Add to collection”. Type a name into „Search or create collection”, then select „Create”. You find your collections on the library's „Collections” tab. Frequently asked questions Does it speak Hungarian? Yes. At the bottom of the menu on the left, choose Hungarian in the language picker. Komga remembers it separately in each browser. I uploaded a file, but I do not see it. Why? Check that the file is inside the media/comics folder, in a series folder, and that it is CBZ, CBR, PDF or EPUB. Then run „Scan library files”. Can I limit what a child sees? Yes. On the „Users” page, in the child's row, choose „Edit restrictions”. There you set which libraries they see, and you can set an age limit too. What happens if I delete a book in Komga? „Delete” removes the file from the drive as well, and this cannot be undone. If you only want to hide it, use the restrictions instead. Can I read on my phone? Yes, in the browser at komga.tester4.test, or in an OPDS-capable reader app with your Komga account. For setting up the app, the Komga help gives the exact OPDS address. Where do I see what is backed up? On the dashboard, on Komga's „Data and backup” tab. Documentation Official documentation ↗
