Transmission

Hello,

i'd love to choose the donwload location for a new torrent
choosing the file location is already implementet in preferences so it shouldn't be that much work

Just so you know, there is a ticket in trac for this feature request. It is probably more work than you think. The web ui is being pretty actively developed right now so there is a chance that this will be added in the upcoming months.

I cant believe this still isnt implemented in such a mature and popular project.

Our web developer disappeared just around the time that clutch was merged into transmission. so web client had really stalled until kjg jumped onboard about a month ago. (And wow is the web client faster in 1.70.)

So cut him some slack. He's inherited a pile of code and is fixing it up for free. You don't need to pile on him.

Just wanted to say thank you to the developers. I so wish i knew how to code myself, I would help and contribute too.

Yes this feature wont be bad at all.

Anyone have a good tip, to be able to quickly move the downloaded data, to another location, and still have it linked up to the .torrent file so as one can continue seeding ?

Thank you.

Great job on the Web UI so far. As soon as this feature is implemented I'm switching from Torrentflux-b4rt to the Transmission Web UI.

From taking a look at the notes in the trac; if opening a (restricted) directory browser isn't possible, allowing users to set predefined directories that you can select from a drop-down list would be almost as good. Being able to tag or flag a torrent and having these tags associated with specific directories would be even better, but likely way too much work if the infrastructure isn't in place. However, obviously a directory browser would be the best and cleanest solution. Just a few thoughts.
