And when you want to save as 01, 02, 02.5, 03 do you mean as a subfolder of series? If so, you just need to add /{series_index}/ to your template.

Also, your current template has a problem that makes it not work properly if there is no series. Do you see the in your template? This allows you to only add {stuff1} before the series_index and {stuff2} after, IF series_index exists.
See http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/temp...ced-formatting for a more in-depth explanation.

Your current template should therefore look like this:



not like this



I have moved the "/" which separates folders from after the series to the conditional after-the-series-if-series-exists, and same goes for the " - " right before the second {series}.

if you wish to switch from "A (1st letter of Authors last name) > Author (First Last) > Series (if applicable) > Title - Series -03- Author" to "A (1st letter of Authors last name) > Author (First Last) > Series (if applicable) > Series Number (if applicable) > Title - Series -03- Author" then use this instead (addition in red)
why do you think this should work?
I see 1 glaring error (according to the example on the STD template page)

{author_sort[1]}

I have used the field substring in 2 places:
{author_sort[1]}_authors/ ...
{series[1]}-series/
