Save to Disk Question

grumbleskin · 03-12-2022, 08:50 PM

I have made some custom columns for my library. I have a "save to disk" save template using my custom columns.

Sometimes, some of the columns remain blank, when they are, the saved files disregard the folder structure. I assume it is because I have a empty column field in my save template.

How do I fix that? I have been looking for the code to add that tells it when it is "empty to move on to the next thing, but I can't find it.

{#System}/{#Press}/{#Edition}/{#Setting}/{title}

Sometimes I won't have anything in the edition column or setting column.

Is this the source of my problem?

Your template needs to have a fallback when the lookup-field is blank as you can NOT have blank folder names (/ creates a folder)
