User-defined categories. Absolute paths

Post by Dagur »

I tried creating a category with an absolute path outside the default "root" but it didn't work.

Is this a bug or am I not supposed to be able to do this?

Thanks for the reply. It was a permission issue  ::)

Another question was raised though. I tried downloading from the Books category in newzbin but chose the PDA category in the drop-down field. The files were still put into the books folder. Am I not supposed to be able to choose or is this just for uncategorised downloads?

This is not correct.
Overrides in the main screen or later in the queue should have precedence.
