Re-reading back through this thread, I noticed something I missed earlier in Starson's first post: the possibility of appending the {id} to a folder rather than filename. So I tested this and it works to solve filename conflicts of identical Authors/Titles in Saves, with the benefit of not needing to later strip ID out of filename with Add-using-filename regex. Because the Add regex reads from the filename itself rather than the folder it's in.
So, my newest and better Save template is now:
Code:
{author_sort}/{title} - ({id})/{authors} - {series}{series_index:0>2s| | - }{title}
Thanks, Starson. And thanks chaley for seconding the notion with the {id} idea. Sorry I missed seeing the folder option earlier.
