New create subfolder setting cannot be switched off

Post by wurzel »

The new setting to create subfolders out of nzbs, collections or the subject name keeps getting reenabled on its own. I deselect both checkboxes of "Apply to", meaning Download&Save aswell as Download&Save(Auto), press OK and when I then close the app and reopen it, the checkbox at "Download&Save" is alreay set to selected again. Am I missing anything or is this simply a bug?

Thanks for you time!

I didn't notice your message initially.

if ( last_version>=7000&&last_version<7500||
last_version>=6000&&last_version<=6110||
last_version<5991 ) bSaveSubdir=TRUE; //18 Nov 24

I thought the next version will be v7.5, but it went differently after two users came up with the issues reflected in the release notes, the setting was supposed to be checked only once, but I forgot to change the trigger version, so v7.4.1 is less than v7.5 and this is constantly triggered then.

So I'll fix it, but better I include additional rudimentary functionality in the v7.4 fashion which was incidentally ready yesterday, so it will be v7.4.2 then as for v7.5 I plan something more. I will also check if to have this option checked once or it should be not changed (not sure about (Auto) since it was checked by default always, just it was in the Import properties tab in the past even as it is clearly related to Save, I just get cryptically named folders sometimes with some nzb samples, in short I will take a fresh look into this.

I see, that in v6.1 when the option was still in Import it was unchecked by default. So probably it is better to have them both unchecked by default and not to interfere with the user settings. The only necessary option appears to be "Import as collection" as it may store nzb unrar etc. password, the rest depends what is a typical source of the nzb files, given the current renaming games.

Thanks for your reply - glad to hear it's not a big deal for you to fix 8)

First I was just wondering where my downloads went and only then saw the new folders being created, disabled them and next time they were back despite it all ;)

Love all the work you put into the program - cheers!
