In couple of months I will be building my first server and I was looking for something for audiobooks too. What do you mean that subfokders are not supported? Now I manualy add books to my phone and my folder structure is: Books series > * Book 1 * Book 2

Or Standalone books > * Book X * Book Y

That wont work?

I don't really care about stats, I have Storygraph for that. But what is the difrence between books finished and books listened to? Shoudnt the latter be bigger number than the former?

You finished 46 books in 14 sessions?

Sub folder for the web/API. I should have been more descriptive. IE: I had to have it on http://abshelf.example.com instead of http://example.com/abshelf/

ABS has a known directory structure for "figuring out" titles, authors, etc https://www.audiobookshelf.org/docs/#book-directory-structure . The problem I had is with the "Series" as I have them all saved in 1 folder. Books>Author-Title(Series, #)/files. Because of my terrible convention and I am probably the only one who does it, it only sometimes matched.
But after remapping everything (I immediately setup backups so I never have to do it again).

For the stats, I only recently installed it, in November. So I marked a few books as finished, but didn't "listen" to them. Thus the stats are all skewed

I hate that there is such a rigid structure required for directories and such. Can't my drive of audiobooks just be scattered trash like everything else in my data life? Lol

Hahaha. You only have to spend a few hours like me remapping everything and then you'll never have to worry about the file structure!
