Library management issues after editing metadata
Hi.
No amount of search aided me in finding a solution to this. With caution that my searching might have been faulty, please allow me to describe the very basic issue I am facing:
1. I edit the metadata of a record in Calibre. For example, the author's name is changed, or the book's title. This record contains an actual book in any of the formats acceptable (pdf, epub, etc) and an actual image cover.
2. I click OK.
3. The record now contains the following: the generic cover as image that Calibre has by default, and a book in the same file format before clicking OK but now containing nothing. It cannot even be opened.
4. The file path before clicking OK and the file path after I click OK are different. Calibre did not rename the file and did not take the file with it's cover to the new file path. It simply created a new folder, inserted the generic cover and a new blank book. It would seem that by browsing the library the book has been corrupted or lost, but in reality it's in the directory.
How do I tell Calibre to rename the file name and take it together with it's cover to the new folder it creates?
Your help is very much appreciated!
