Folder Image was created by stabary
Hi,

I have about 10000 comics and they are all organized under a folder structure with similar depth whatever the comic.
When a comic has multiple "seasons" or "cycle", there is one folder by season and when I have things like making-of or "out of cycle" I have a dedicated folder for it.
Consequently when a comic has only one season (main) I have created a default 000 folder
The problem is that the comic folder ends up containing only a subfolder 000 and therefore has no "cover image"

I can manipulate the db and copy the first hash of the 000 folder into the parent folder. It works but update gets erased anytime I update the library.
I also noticed a special column in the folder table called customImage but I have not found in YACReaderLibrary the means to set the value to something.

Is there a way to define a folder image?
Should it be named something special like the exact name of the folder?
Should it have a specific extension?

There is a dirty way to do it by creating a fake cbz with one jpg in it but it's a bit heavy and it creates tons of "empty" comics.

Regards
STephane

The functionality is not there yet, at some point I added the field to the db but the infrastructure is lacking.

Not sure if you have any dev skills but I will accept a PR ;)

Note that ubooquity will display the nr of comics inside a folder with a nr on top of the cover image.
This way you can differentiate folders, and if you have an idea bout the amount of comics under one series a quick idea how many editions you got
