Help with organising folders

Snow Sciles · 05-11-2014, 10:23 AM

Instead of saving all my ebooks to, nook files\my files\books

I want to create and access, nook files\my files\fanfiction

I'm not sure how to proceed as I don't know how to get Calibre to read one level up, it occurred to me that it automatically goes to Books, but how?

I'm currently using this template

Code:

{#fandom:'test($, strcat( '!', $), field('authors'))'}/{title}

It must be possible because "my files" also contains folders for documents and newspapers.

I'm thinking I have to use the full Nook path, otherwise Calibre will create a fanfiction folder inside Books. Is this true?

I'm working with

Code:

contains(

current_library_name(),

(Fanfiction Library),

#fandom/{title}
 
 )

I want to set an action up for every library.

You can use Save to Disk or Connect to Folder to send books wherever you want. But I would think calibre sends them there because that is where the device looks for books. On the Kindle, books MUST go in the "documents" folder.
Disclaimer: this is a total guess since I know nothing about the Nook. Feel free to ignore me if I'm wrong.

That's what I'm thinking, but in My Files, I also have default folders for Newspapers, Documents and Magazines. So how would I send something to those folders? Why is Calibre sending everything to Books?
