If I have no custom assets to apply, should I change settings to asset_folders: false?

[severe drift]

Simple question. Just not sure what my settings should look like. If I don't have any custom assets, why would kometa need to look for/create assets folders? Not sure if my logic is sound though

All asset_folders controls is whether Kometa expects assets to be in folders or not. It doesn't affect looking for assets or not, only where it looks for them.

[severe drift]

That makes more sense. Is there a way I can tell Kometa to not look for assets?

My config/assets folder is completely empty

[twilit wharf]

It will always look for collection assets. You can control whether it looks for individual item assets or not.

  cache_expiration: 60
  asset_directory: config/assets
  asset_folders: true
  asset_depth: 0
  create_asset_folders: false
  prioritize_assets: false
  dimensional_asset_rename: false
  download_url_assets: false```

Do you have assets_for_all: true set under operations?

[severe drift]

No I have assets_for_all: false

[twilit wharf]

Then the only assets Kometa will look for is collection assets, which cannot be disabled.

Ok great thanks for clarifying that. I went down a hole looking at the wiki and confused myself
