reproduce:
* use the setup as shown in the attached screenshot
* add a new category like "Phase 1"
* "save and close" the category (folder "phase_1" gets created on the server)
* edit this category and save again

expected:
* the folder name on the server does not change
* the "Directory Name" in the database does not change

current:
* the folder name on the server does not change
* the "Directory Name" in the database does change to "phase1" !!! which disables the category and screws up the entire front end download section

EDIT: found a work around - switch off "auto create folder name" in the config

Hi
Have found another variant of this problem.  Slightly different Cong as in pic Search Categories Backend-01.png .  Everything looks good in pic Search Categories Backend-02.png.  However I could not Publish see Search Categories Backend-03.png
Reason was that directory was not created.  Database entry for new category looked OK.  Did not get any error message when I made the new category but on trying to upload I did get error about permissions needed etc

Please accept our apologies for this mistake.

The result should now be correct. See pics.
