Make title/series mangling optional #561

Open Grunthos opened 10 years ago

Grunthos commented 10 years ago

We currently capitalize and rearrange titles for sorting purposes, eg "The road" becomes "Road, The". We already have a todo for a separate 'sort' field (so titles will display properly), but we should also add a preference to disable the capitalization entirely since in other languages it is often inappropriate:

(from a user)

Could you make converting title words starting uppercase (Something Like This) optionable in preferences, because in my primary language we dont use such uppercasing and we write: Something like this. It concerns title, serie... Now I have to correct it manually and it is very annoying.

So, is it now possible to prevent the app from rearranging my titles? I don't want the articles "The" & "An" moved to the end of the title. However, I can't find an option to prevent this annoying format behavior. Since it has been 2 years since the original post, has this option now been implrmented?
