The Word Wise data are stored in a SQLite file. If you're familiar with SQL, you could write some SQL queries to edit the db file. The file is saved at the calibre plugin folder, for example: |

Would you please consider adding an option to enable all the queries after filtering, so that users can enable all expressions, say, under a certain difficulty level? I really don't know how to use an SQL manager. Thank you. |

Thank you so much. Tried it out. I enabled all lemmas for Korean-English and noticed that inflections of Korean words are not recognized. Not just verbs, which have more complexed changes in forms, but also a noun plus a "particle" (I don't know how to put it according to linguistics). For example to "make a decision" is 결정을 내리다 in Korean. 결정 means decison, 내리다 is to make. (Koreans put verb after nouns). 을 is the "particle" following a noun that has a verb applied to it. It is sort of like "the decision is made". But Wordwise will not recognize 결정 in this context, because it seems to regard 결정을 as a word, which of course does not exist. Another example is "Spring is coming" 봄이 온다. But since 봄 does not appear alone, it is not recognized. Most Korean words are followed by particles in a sentence. So most words are not marked. I checked out the SQL database, and it seems that the database DOES include meticulous inflections of verbs. Anything that can be done to improve the situation? |

I've noticed that in the "Customize Wiktionary" setting page there are tools such as "Filter difficulty" and "Filter enabled". However, there doesn't appear to be an obvious way to select or deselect multiple words in a batch, rather than clicking each one individually. Could you please let me know if there's an easy method for bulk checking or unchecking words? Manually toggling them one at a time seems inefficient. Thank you in advance for any guidance you can provide on streamlining this process!
