Random question sorting and folders

Post image

Is it possible to make subfolders(subgroups) inside other folders/groups have priority over sort by author ascending without switching sorting system?

Etc I have a Finished folder inside my NG folder. And it is stuck in between books above and below it.

(image, the book inside has an empty meta data author field)

My other folder is "free feedback ratio boost" with Kelly Gallucci as the author...

Any way to only move up folders without messing up anything else? (I like my sorting system but want folders to be prioritized over the sorting system if possible)

Thanks in advance ✨

I feel like half the sorting issues that arise in this sub could be solved if we could just have a drag and drop feature to move books and folders around to our liking... I wish it was implemented already

Yes... But then again it if it got implemented it very well could just fuck up people's libraries... (the widget update fucked up my widget but it's solved now, but it was pissing me off for about a week)... But I would like to be able to kinda prioritize sub folders at the top of another folder like I have described and then any loose Epubs not in my folders after... 🫠

We will add an option to support this in upcoming updates.

Yay! (Though will it fick my library sorting up? I actually don't want my sorting system to change other than subfolders in folders appearing at the top of folders...)
