Originally created by @pjones112000 on GitHub (Oct 20, 2024).

Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Sometimes when I go on cruises I like taking audiobooks with me to listen offline...it would be nice to be able to download all the audiobooks for a specific or series rather than downloading one at a time....particularly on long cruises or vacations.

Why would this be helpful?

Currently, I would either need to download one book at a time or copy directly from the filestore to my tablet/phone to listen rather than selecting an entire series or author to download all to my tablet/phone in an automated fashion.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Add option to either the picture of the author or the author details page to download.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.14.0

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

No response

Do you mean in the web client or in the mobile app?

If the mobile app, duplicate of https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/issues/188

To further clarify, are you downloading the zip file on the web client and playing this in an audio player on your phone?

Yes, exactly. Zip to phone, using an offline music player. Admittedly,
an offline version of the webclient would be nice but I know that's more
complicated.

Hello just adding/comment this to the Enhancment. A DL option for the WebUI would be helpful for eBook Libraries. Typically a User DL a .epub to the PC and copy it to their desired eReader eg Tolino. Especially for series with multiple parts can this be usful and spare a user much clicking each book and afterwards unzipping again etc.
Maybe in combine the funktion with the mark (circle in book cover top left corner) and DL the marked eBooks.
