Bug Description

First of all, thank you for this great software.

I'm not sure if this would make this software overweight, but i'm proposing progression on the move to completed folder option.

Since i download different types of media, it would be cool if i could designate different categories and define their folder location for them in the settings. Then, when i'm asked if i want to add the folder to que, just select from my list of categories and the download would move to the related folder when it is complete.

Thanks again.

This behavior is *almost* possible already.

Torrent categorizing/labelling is supported. If you go to program preferences and tick the check box called "Append torrent label" just under the save path: qBittorrent will download the torrents to the sub folder corresponding to their category/label.

If know it is less flexible than what you are asking for but it is close :)

Thumb up for this feature request. I always work with different folders on different disk drive, and it would help if we can customize the torrent location based on their status/categorie. Example :
* Category A / Downloading → /folder1/<category>
* Category A / Completed → /folder2/<category>
* Category A / Torrent seeded up to a ratio of X → move to /folder3/<category> AND/OR delete the torrent (but not the files)

I also put most of my downloaded files on an external disk drive, which is not always turned on, so I would appreciate that qBittorrent does not says « Hey I didn't find your files ! Let's download them again in /folder1/* ! » and switch back to the "downloading" state ...
