Not creating subfolder based on NZB
« on: April 16, 2021, 02:09:02 am »
I'm not sure if this is intentional or not but if I have "create subfolder based on NZB/root node name" or "Create subfolders based on group name" checked and choose a category for the files to go to then folders will be created, however if I just choose to change download folder then folder are created.

Don't be affraid to use pictures to show the problem you're having. It hard for me to understand your problem based on this one sentence.

What is happening here is that when I choose the category I want the files to download, all the files are created in the root of my category folder even though I have the options to create subfolders. Here's how to reproduce it as pictures won't help in this situation.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Got to settings and under Download section, check box both  "create subfolder based on NZB/root node name" and "Create subfolders based on group name" options
2. Import or add a nzb to download
3. right click on nzb you just imported and choose your category to download to

Your files will be in the root of your category folders and NO folders are created based on your options you chose in step 1.

If you repeat the same steps above but in steps 3, choose download to a different location then your sub folders will be created with the options in step 1

Again, no pictures :)

Your first step doesn't have anything to do with end result - why? cause you use category
You have those options in category settings

I’ll try this when I get home from work. Can you tell me where this setting is for the category to create sub folders?

Same screen where you setup categories. Move mouse over column names to get short description.

Thanks for showing me this setting as it's what I was looking for.
