How to alter save template 'series' variable?
Had to order a new e-reader & thought I might re-organise my ebook collection. At the moment my current save to disk template is:
Code:
{series}/{series_index:0>2s| [Book |] - }{authors} - {title:re(:, - )} Obviously, I don't want the folder name to be "Green Mile, The" I want it to be 'The Green Mile', I can't see any variable that allows this change. Anyone know anything? |

Are you using a different viewer on your Kobo. I ask, because the only way I see the folder is using Windows.
Kobo FW now handles series (from Calibre) |

I'm using Calibre 6.8 (Win 11), this is the template I have for "Save to disk" not 'Save to device'. This template is for saving the books to my PC.

OK
You do realize this does not / should not be used to affect the Calibre Library folder? Calibre Libraries should be treated as a black box and only use Calibre to rename any part of the path. |

Yes I understand that everything inside Calire is stored in a folder, however I don't want all my books inside Calibre. I only have new books I want to transfer to my e-reader device. I save the books to disk and store them outside Calibre.
