Getting rid of folders

Postby dcuritois » July 8th, 2012, 10:31 pm

Say I get a

something.nzb

This then usually produces

SomethingFolder/SomethingFile


ie, always a folder with something in it, most of the time I don't really want this.

What are the ways to get rid of this "parent" folder?

Only using sorting? because it seems there aren't enough sorting options to handle that :-/

I was in a hurry when I answered the first poster. The text says:
Ending the path with an asterisk * will prevent creation of job folders.
So any category path that ends with a * will not get sub folders.
