Adding "YYYY/YYYY_MM" to "Import and sort" as Subfolder

Post by TobiWanKen0bi »

Hi XnView Team,

first of all you XnView is by far my favorite software to organize my Photos.

I lately got a DJI and no I try to automate the image import from the SD card.

I would love to have another sub folder option in the "Import and sort" Tool.

Would it be possible to add "YYYY/YYYY_MM" to the list. This way I don't need extra software and I can stay fully in XnViewMP.

THAT WOULD BE SUPER NICE

Thanks for all the great work!!!

Tobi

Oh and it would be super nice to have the option to add a categories to "Import and sort". This way I can select some categories and they automatically get assigned to the fotos when they get copied over

thx

Locate your xnview.ini file with Settings>Integration>Paths (and use "Open config files location" button)
Edit xnview.ini in a notepad, search for yyyy , so you can find the list subFolder= with all formats. Add yyyy/yyyy_MM (comma and space separators)
Save, and restart Xnviewmp ...

And in Import and Sort dialog, "Categories to assign" is already there ...
