Kovid suggested the same to you three days ago as quoted in your post below.



Also as you acknowledged in the below quoted post the default template will be changed in the next release of calibre.



It can all be confusing, the next version of calibre should default to no sub-directories.

Good Reading.
Yes, he did and I did it and it didn't work - it dropped the subdirectories inside the author subdirectory (one for each book), but the books were all in the author subdirectory instead and the books still went undetected by the Fire. So I changed the string back and then decided to wait for the new version tomorrow, but I decided to post this new thread so Kovid could see that the string he suggested didn't work for my Fire.

Waiting for tomorrow's release.
