Saving Format

pugwash61 · 04-28-2020, 06:41 AM

Hi Folks,

I am trying to amend the Save Book To Disk template.

I currently use

Code:

{authors}/{title}/{authors} - {title}

which for example saves the book "A Lonely Death" as Lonely Death,A or "The Confession" as Confession, The.

How do i get it to save the title exactly as it appears in Calibre.

Thanks for your help and stay safe,

I wonder if this tweak affects that? (preferences:tweaks)

Code:

# Control sorting of titles and series in the library display

title_series_sorting = u'library_order'

Personally, I would be driven Nuts looking under 'A' for that title om my device

(Or 'T' for The ..., or 'A' for An ... )

Why do you want a directory for the book title?
