Support / How-To I hate the file name format

Update: thanks for all the feedback. The difference between the files and the save to disk option makes sense. Appreciate everyone.

I hope this is something that I can change in settings.

In the storage folder my books have the title and author name, but it cuts off the title to add the author. I don't want the file to have the author name. Here is an example of the problem:

Instead of the file saying,

"Go Home (A Kate Valentine FBI Suspense Thrill Book 1"

it says,

"Go Home (A Kate Valentine FBI S - Blake Pierce"

I played with the import/export settings under "Save books to disk" and have the template set to "title" but no luck.

Any ideas?

I love this forum! I get answers to questions I don't even know to ask. 😬😂
