The new option to append author names seems to only apply to the downloaded chapter (.zip, in my case), but not the folder itself. So, I have a folder without the author name, but a bunch of chapters that have the author name.

Is there a way to append the author name to the default folder for each series? The option says "chapter folder", but it only applies to the downloaded chapters, not the folder where they're being downloaded.

    Can't you just rename the folder?
    Give me example, what situation you have, what kind of manga you're downloading?
    If it was just a bunch of one-shot, you may consider to not make manga folder at all, uncheck "Create directory based on manga name" in settings.

    I could rename the folder, but the reason for the ticket request is so that I don't have to do so every time.

    An example would be, say I decide to download a bunch of manga titles that a friend sent me. Various authors, perhaps a mix of oneshots and full series.

    Now I have a bunch of titles. I'd like to quickly sort through them and put all manga by Author X into one folder. Having the author name appended to the default folder name would make this easier.

    I suppose what I'm asking is, is it possible to append the author name from the Batoto listing to the "Save To" directory in the .ini? For example,

    SaveTo=U:\Manga+ Tic Neesan [Kurii Cha]\

    It's possible. But we need to declare new function and new UI element for this. We can't change "title" because its essential. I don't have time for this right now.

    Feel free to send a patch.
    Don't change anything in CustomRename. There are 2 places to add IIRC.
    You just need to declare it when assigning "SaveTo" variable. And UI control for ON/OFF switch.
