Hadn't noticed that, even though I have looked at that code a thousand times.
This technique works only for send-to-device.
Some details gathered by code examination:
- If the book has the tag "News", then except for the Nook color, the book will be placed into a News folder. I have no idea why the Nook Color turns this feature off.
- If the book has a tag that begins with a '/', then that tag will be used as the folder name. Note that the tag can have embedded slashes, which creates a path.
- If a book has both a "News" tag and a tag beginning with a slash, then one of them will win. Which one depends on the order the tags were added to the library.
- If a book has more than one tag beginning with a slash, then one of them will win. Which one depends on the order the tags were added to the library.
In all the above cases, all but the last component (after the last slash) of the path template are ignored.
