As a messy short-term workaround, I've been able to change the save-to location by picking 'other' from the drop-down box in preferences, selecting the desired folder (e.g. Downloads), and editing the 'Location' string to make sure there's no suffix at the end (e.g. 'Downloads', not 'Downloads/xxx'). Then pressing ok.
For me, if the string isn't edited manually it auto-completes to the nested folder, so even if the Downloads folder is clicked on, the location string becomes 'Downloads/xxx' where x is the destination folder of the previously added torrent. Hope that makes sense. The same steps also work for moving an individual torrent through the right-click->'set location' dialog. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1071578 Title: Transmission starts saving to a folder within Downloads and will not allow me to select another folder to save to To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/1071578/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
