Directories with comics and folders seemingly won't open

[vonguard]

Hey, I have a couple very large folders of organized files in folders, but there are a few single files in the root directory of this master folder. As far as I can tell, having a directory in this state will cause Codex to scan the folder, show it, but when you click on it in the browser, the folder will not open. I moved the files out of the root and into their own sub folder of this directory, and the problem was solved. Let me know what you need from me in the way of more details and I can provide them.

Love the software!

I concur that I've seen this as well.

Agreed woops had to edit because I realized I had been comparing my "Green Arrow" folder to the rest but it works fine my "Green Lantern" folder was the issue and it did have a Single comic on its own. It would appear a single FILE ie a '.txt' or '.jpg' causes no issue. Neither does having multiple '.cbz' and folders mixed but having a SINGLE '.cbz' and a few folders prevents the web ui from being able to open the folder in folder view at all.

Ah very good thanks! Will look into it soon. I have some time for codex coming up!

Some bugs fixed in v1.5.0 may address this issue.

Hi! It's later now. I just discovered Codex, and think I'm hitting this or a similar issue. A library with both subfolders and lone comics in the root is just showing the non-subfoldered comics.

I've been trying to replicate this and I still cant. I have a test folder like:

FolderBug/
  Comic #001.cbz
  SubFolder1/
     Comic #002.cbz
     Comic #003.cbz
  SubFolder 2/
     Comic #004.cbz
     Comic #005.cbz

And it behaves normally. Is there another configuration you all think might misbehave?

Well me not seeing any other files was a PEBKAC error. But what I'm seeing now is even stranger.

On the file system:

rootDir
  Comic #aComig.cbz
  Folder1
    Comic #anotherComic.pdf
  Folder 2
    Comic  #heyLookAComic.pdf
etc

But what Codex shows is:

Root:
  Comic aComic
  OneFolderToRuleThemAll
    anotherComic
    heyLookAnotherComic
    AllTheOtherComicsinOtherSubdirsInthisOneDir... dot pee dee eff?

As for configuration, this is a brand new install. I'm fresh to codex, just set up the compose file and off to the races.
