Everything works the way it is supposed to.

Are you sure you have no Metadata Plugboard set up for device called "Content server"?

...
As I said, I have a completely stock installation of the latest Calibre, with no plugins and no modifications. I have an empty page for Metadata Plugboards. I am using Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon.

So, are you saying you set up the content server, and tested the "get'' function for a book that is not part of a series, and the resulting filename did not have anything added? Did you try it with a book that is part of a series? I'm wondering if it added the series name to the beginning of the book name, as mine does. Personally, I would prefer it not to do that - it seems silly.

I don't want to go in to add a workaround unless I find out that there is no other way, as in the future, it will get lost, and I'll have to figure out what I did to recreate it. I would rather find the code that is causing the problem, and either confirm that it's a bug, or find out why it's doing this.

I really find it pretty hard to believe that I'm the only one with this problem since there is nothing unusual about my installation.
