Hi everyone.
Why does a template test-column and the template tester for Saving Books to Disk show me 2 different results? I have a template test-column in my library in which I have this and it shows me exactly an output exactly like I want:
1 Fandom = folder named after the fandom
2 Fandoms = folder named Crossovers
3 Fandoms or more = folder named Multiple Crossovers
When I add this in the template editor for Saving to Disk it only creates the Multiple Crossovers folder.
I've tried removing all the spaces and everything else I could think of, but it still only shows the Multiple Crossovers folder, and when I save books none of the folders are created.
Here's the "compressed" version:
Here's 3 versions of what it's supposed to do:
Harry Potter/Mireille/Tired (AO3-13781403)
Crossovers/Criminal Minds & Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders/youvebeenwinchesterd/Cheer You Up (AO3-14946017)
Multiple Crossovers/Sevensmommy/Roots Before Branches (AO3-14882856)
I hope someone can help.
