ImportingNZB From Article List?

Post by stevendm »

I am viewing articles in a newsgroup. Is there any way to select an article that contains a nzb file, right click, and download all of the individual articles pointed to by the nzb file?

The only way I know to do it now is to download the nzb file and then go to the import menu selection and download the articles.

Thanks

That seems to only download the nzb file. I was hoping for something that also started downloading all of the articles at the same time.

edit menu->properties->general->import/search, associate nzb files with action you need to change the action from "import only" to "import&download&save".

"import&download&save" is now the default setting for new installs in v1.9.5, i also added the words "including import folder" to make the setting more clear.

you've made a good point, just in first UE releases when the group default save directory (properties->newsgroups) has not been defined - the general default (the topmost "default" entry) was variable reflecting the last user choice when invoking "download&save", then i made the entry fixed (still remembering the last user selection but keeping it separatedly) so properties->newsgroups would always giving an invariable destination - set by the user in properties or when not set being the "downloads" directory in the ue database directory, i.e. always easily predictable - at that point the setting could be changed this way.
