themoot Define a limited amount of valid formats that most magazines will adhere to. From my POV, these cover 95% of what I run into: Date (ISO 8061) standard: YYYY-MM(-DD) (ie, 2023-01, 2023-01-19) Yes, you may have to normalize and rename files, but aren't we already doing that? |

This has been accepted. Kavita+ users can provide feedback to help me build out the initial version. I will be in contact with questions as necessary. |

Added a comment from https://feats.kavitareader.com/posts/450/minimal-interpretation-for-pdfs I would also love to see some extra library types like "Magazine", "Article", "Leaflet", "Document", "Other", ... I think power users would appreciate a feature to specify one or multiple regular expressions that overwrite the default name parsing of Kavita and use the regex to get some metadata. e.g. Microsoft - NET Microservices Architecture for Containerized NET Applications .NET 7.0 (2022).pdf National Geographic 2021-01.pdf Tolkien, J.R.R. - The Hobbit.epub |

For Magazines exclusively, the story to implement them is here: If you have common filenames, please comment on that. Do not comment about non-Magazine related information. This is exclusively designed around Magazines. |

You requested other organizational schemes. Basically, I end up categorizing by publisher, then Game then book type then books.

This is very similar to my Structure and Most likely the most common structure among TTRPG users.
So in these cases Each Folder below the "RPG" would in essence be treated as "Named Volumes" |

Description
I would like to add newspapers and magazines in my kavita library... I tried something but it's a mess. Could it be possible to create some kind of naming/parsing scheme similar to this for example ?
for a weekly/monthly magazine -->
//magazine/new-yorker/2022/new-yorker-2022-01-10.pdf
and for daily papers =
//newspapers/jan2022/nyt-2022-01-10.pdf
any other idea or suggestion are welcome ;-)
