Heya,

I've been using this template for a while and generally it works fine...

program:

series = test( field('series'), field('series'), '');
topic = test( field('#topic'), field('#topic'), '');

category = first_non_empty(series, topic);

strippedcategory = re(category, '^(A|The|An|Der|Die|Das)\s+', '');
initialofcategory = substr( strippedcategory, 0, 1 );

idx = field('series_index');
indexno = contains(idx, '\.', format_number(idx, '04.1f'), format_number(idx, '02d'));
index = test(series, strcat( indexno , ' - '), '');

cleanedCategory = re(category, ' & ', ' and ');
cleanedCategory = re(category, '&', ' and ');

foldernameforcategory = strcat(initialofcategory, '/', cleanedCategory, '/', index);

defaultfoldername = 'other/';

cleanedTitle = field('title');

finalfolder = test(category, foldernameforcategory, defaultfoldername);

strcat('books/', finalfolder, cleanedTitle );

Basically, for my kobo, my books are sorted under their series (if any) or their topic (a custom field), grouped by the first letter of either (A/A-Series, The; B/B-Topic, etc.). So far, so good...

Now I wanted to be clever and though, if I used the "topic" column to add a sub-topic as well, it could sort it under the sub-directory, for example:

"Programming" -> goes under P/Programming
"Programming/C" -> goes under P/Programming/C
"Programming/Java" -> goes under P/Programming/Java

In calibre when this is displayed, it also looks correct, but unfortunately, when loading them onto the Kobo, it actually works out to...

"Programming" -> goes under P/Programming
"Programming/C" -> goes under P/Programming_C
"Programming/Java" -> goes under P/Programming_Java

So, any idea what's causing this and is there an easy way to clean up the topic string to get the correct result?
