Add title to bulk but keep number
Hi !
I've got 160 walking dead files. In calibre the title is the numer (1 to 160) I would like to keep those number but add ''the walking dead'' before those numbers (The walking dead - 01) (The walking dead - 02) (...) Bulk edit doesn't allow to add title. S&R need me to select a search... Can someone help me there ? Thanks ! |

'the walking dead ' would be your replace value the search field {title} search for \d+ (assumes REGEX mode, numbers only. use .+ if text) |

Theducks: Is there a way to do it in batch or I must do it manually for each of the 160 titles ?
