Save To Disk file name format

Hi.

I use the save to disk function to get the file name formatted to include series name and number, then I use the send to kindle app to transfer them to my kindle (since the email function includes the author in the subject line and there would be no series info there).

What I have a problem with currently is it seems like the save to disk function defaults to title_sort instead of title.

Like this for example:

The House of Hades by Rick Riordan, which is the 4th book in The Heroes of Olympus book series.

I use this template for everything in Calibre when it comes to exporting/sending:

Code:
{#rorder} {#rorder_index:0>5.2f} {series} {series_index:0>5.2f} {title}
#roder is just a custom column I have because some authors have a recommended reading order for their books.

If I use the send to device via usb (just regular sideloading), the file name generated would be:

Code:
The Heroes of Olympus 04.00 The House of Hades
But if I use the save to disk function, the file name generated is:

Code:
Heroes of Olympus, The 04.00 House of Hades, The
I've made do with it, but I'm at the point where I would just like the file name to not be in title_sort, as I'm still in the middle of rebuilding my library and I still have hundreds of books to go through.

Is there a way where I can make the save to disk function generate file names that are not in series/title_sort format?
