exempt certain downloads from cleanup list?

Post by renegade »

As the subject asks, is there a way to exempt certain jobs from the cleanup list.

Some jobs I wish to download and move/unpack, others I would just like to download, repair, then move.

For example, most jobs are posted in rar files. Sometimes sab leaves behind rar files for jobs that are unpacked, so I have them in the cleanup list. This works great. However, there are times when I wish to just download and not unpack, but keep the rar file set.

As of now, I cannot find a way to do this without modifying the cleanup list to include rar files. This is quite tedious to keep changing back and forth.

Thanks for any guidance.

You could use a custom Post-processing script that "manually" deletes the file-extensions you want gone and only use that script for the categories where you want them gone.
