Hi I just wonder what I am doing wrong. I try to select the path a book is saved onto my Kindle depending if it is coming from a series of books or not. So I changed the template under
'Preferences' => 'Sending book to devices'
My first program code was:
PHP Code:
program:
test(
field('series'),
'{series}/{series} - Band_{series_index} - {authors} - {series_index}_{title}',
'{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}'
)
then I changed the testing field and tried:
PHP Code:
program:
test(
field('series_index'),
'{series}/{series} - Band_{series_index} - {authors} - {series_index}_{title}',
'{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}'
)
after that I changed the programming and tried:
PHP Code:
program:
test(
ifempty(field('series_index'),'1'),
'{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}',
'{series}/{series} - Band_{series_index} - {authors} - {series_index}_{title}'
)
because all that failed I finally put in:
PHP Code:
{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}
I was shocked to see that the result was in all cases the same! Calibre always uses
PHP Code:
{series}/{series} - Band_{series_index} - {authors} - {series_index}_{title}
as template. Sonething I totally do not understand as changing the template was never a problem.
Until now I switched between those to templates manually before uploading books to my Kindle. Now it doesn't work anymore. I am confused.
I wanted to make the switching automatically by programming a script, but now it doesn't work at all.
I found somewhere in the forum that it should be set on 'Save books to disk' too, but even that doesn't change anything. :-(
The programming would be so useful and I used it already to set 'column' colors.
By the way, it is possible to delete the templates, that aren't used anymore?
