Request for adjustable, visible, sortable Torrent Numbers

Post by StefanAlba »

Hey! I've switched to qBittorrent from uTorrent about six months ago.

There's so much which I think is great about qBittorrent, themes, no adverts, reliability etc but there is one thing which I feel that uTorrent did right which is missing in qBittorrent.... numbering torrents which haven't completed.

I find that ordering torrents in qBittorrent is at times frustrating, as is trying to click on a torrent to stop it, or maybe to force it to be active. Sometimes it's like playing a game of whack a mole trying to click on a constantly moving target. It's frustrating.

In uTorrent I used to manually organise the torrents into the exact order I wanted, and because each torrent was numbered I could manually adjust their position in the queue. I would click on sort by torrent number and that was always my default sort order. It was also much easier to find things and select and perform actions on torrents, because they were always in the same place.

Sadly there is no such control in qBittorrent.

I request that a torrent number column be (re-)instated with the option to manually adjust torrents numbers up and down.

This is possible, it's just buried in the options. Go to Options>Bit Torrent and tick 'enable torrent queueing' which lets you change the number of active torrents. If you do this and click 'OK' it will add a # column :)
