Book Hierarchy
I wanted to put a user specified folder above the default folder structure in Calibre. For example I tried saying "Mystery_Thriller / {author......." in the Save to Device panel. I wanted the books I was exporting to go below a folder called "Mystery_Thriller". I tested this on Save to Disk and it worked fine. I tried this on my iRex and couldn't get it to work. It didn't work on my Sony when I tried that also. I tried putting the folder name in no quotes, single quotes, double quotes. I tried manually creating the folder ahead of time but it was ignored.
I thought that I had seen this talked about in this forum but I couldn't find it when I looked. Just thinking as I am typing, one thing that I haven't tried is Saving to Disk and then just moving the folder system to my eReader. Is there a simpler way? .......Jackie PS I do not want top use tags or any Calibre column to define my top folder name. |

Have you tried setting this at the Device Driver level for the devices?

Have you tried creating the folder on your device first, then try your template and see if the book goes into the folder?

Tried creating the folder and that didn't help any. Have you tried setting this at the Device Driver level for the devices? How would I set this at the Device Driver level? I looked in the Output profile plug-ins but I couldn't customize the plug-in for iRex DR800. Obviously I am missing something. |

I don't know if it will help but I'm sure he is referring to the Device interface plugin.
