Unable to use "bookAuthor" in wildcard #617

Open daaaaaaaaaniel opened 2 years ago

I'm trying to use the "Book Author" field to organize Zotfile subfolders. I'm using this user defined wildcard {"C":"bookAuthor"}

Originally I tried incorporating the wildcard for the bookAuthor field along with the rest of my user defined wildcards, but it broke, so I removed everything else to help with debugging. I also tried some other variations.

No matter what, I couldn't get it working. Any help would be much appreciated!

I met a similar problem as yours, when I tried to use "Translator" field to batch rename my attachments, I found it's actually unavailable. Later I found this field is actually not included in the list of fields supported, so I wonder whether the developer could please adapt this plugin to support this.
