Calibre Ignoring Own Author Sort Settings?

$

I set the "author sort name algorithm" to "copy" so I can find books without telling Calibre which naming convention goes with each book.

I just added another empty book entry, and despite the setting, Calibre insists on sorting it by the second name.

How do I set the settings so Calibre consistently follows the settings, and groups the entry with the others by the same author?

How can I find and fix all the books Calibre insists on sorting some other way?

According to the Faq: "You can force calibre to recalculate the author sort values for every author by right clicking on any author and selecting Manage authors, then pushing the Recalculate all author sort values button. Do this after you have set the author_sort_copy_method tweak to what you want."

But I can't, there's no "Manage authors" in sight.

P.S. Okay, it's hidden away in the "tag browser."
