Hello,

When uploading books remotely to the content server via web browser, Calibre adds them fine, but it doesn't put them in the regular (Calibre) library folder like it does when I add them to the auto import folder at home.

Instead it moves their author folders and contents into the directory above the (Calibre) folder. So it would look like this:

(Calibre)
Add to Calibre
Jim Butcher
Stephen King
Barbara Park

If I move those folders into the (Calibre) folder, all the metadata gets reset until I rescan. I haven't done that yet because I'm still trying to avoid the duplicate books and want to be cautious.

Any ideas?
