Setting a new Category should include the Torrent Share Options

[grinningdog]

If I select a category for a private tracker I would like to automatically have "No Share Limit" in the torrent options. Otherwise it selects the Global setting and (for me) sets it to Completed too early.

If you wish to override global and force torrent options separately per each category, then multiple feature requests in issues page and ideas in discussion page have been already made before:

• Option to set seeding limit and action after complete of a specific tag/category #21271
• Native solution to assign rules per category/tag #23205

Open these 2 and click subscribe button to get notified about any progress and discussion about it:

• Allow to set torrent share limits per category #23577

• Seeding Limits per category #590

If not interested trying experimental development builds, then have to wait when PR #23577 gets approved and merged and then wait for next major version to include it.

Thanks for the info. I'll wait because I seed a lot of old torrents with limited seeds. I wouldn't want to mess that up.

Some trackers don't like or allow using unreleased versions and need to wait for newer version to be whitelisted.

Unfortunately quite often new major version bump has a lot of issues or regressions discovered later on when more users start updating. So it's good habit to wait couple days and look at issue reports or just save backup of current working BT_Backup folder and some other folders before trying anything new to easily revert when have a need to temporarily downgrade.
