How to change the order in which Calibre saves the library to disk.

Laser · 06-19-2012, 08:58 AM

I'm aware of this page on the manual: http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/template_lang.html

However I'm not a programmer so I don't understand python. The thing I would like to accomplish is simple; changing the default order from {authors}/{title}/{title} - {authors} to {series}/{tags}/{title} - {authors}.

The strange thing is when this only works when I select all books and save them to disk. It doesn't work (and doesn't get recognized in the template editor) for new books. Also I can't select the newly saved library as my default library because it will just stay empty in Calibre.

What is the correct string to make my library save in this order?
