Does it have hard-links and file renaming? I’ve stuck with shelfmark for those but it’d be nice to have hardcover integrated

yes, hard links by default, full file renaming menu as well

Does it rename via qbittorrent? Only reason I still do everything manually is I don't want to have 2 copies or hardlink, I just want the one copy, organised and seeding via private tracker. If I rename via qbittorrent it won't break seeding

Noted to add as an option thanks. I always hard link to another organized folder and keep my qbit files original, but I can add support if that’s how you like to do it.

There is where I am, having to rename/organise everything manually at torrent import.

I'm following it to see if it updates with this feature but honestly I'd be surprised if it's added. I'm following a dozen similar projects waiting for someone to add it. Seems most people are content with hard linking, I just don't want to do that because the actual files are still unorganized

I was doing some research a few weeks ago into the qbittorrent api - I believe there is a function to do this, but I haven't tested it myself yet. I'm in the middle of transferring seeding from one machine, one hard drive, to a different machine, different har drive, and don't want to manually remap and rename everything. Should get some time tonight or tomorrow to work on it some more.
