You could always rename the file if it doesn't have it???

Iirc, it does.

As someone who's downloaded something like 2000 fics in the past month, this is a pretty daunting solution. And no, the author name is not included in downloaded file names, at least for me. Mad props to the nonny who figured out how to include them, or took the time to do it all manually.

Make folders with the author's names and sort them, then? Organizing is hard, nonny. I feel you.

I've been doing that for authors I really like, or those who have a whole bunch of fic, but I'm pretty happy with my current system, which is: rough sort by length (over/under 10k) and pairing, and then I download them in kudos order so I can sort by date modified and have a fair idea of how popular it is in comparison to the rest of the fic in the pairing, and I manually add series titles to file names so that they stay together when I alphabetize. It's not perfect, but it's working for me.

Organizing is a pain.

ayrt
Like nonny said above, I download a lot and re-naming is a pain (and I'm also lazy). I was really curious if there was a less tedious way than having to re-name.

This is kind of an odd solution, but you could always import them all into Calibre. It's an ebook program, but all the mobi and epub downloads from AO3 if you import them into Calibre have proper header data and will automatically fill in the author field. Plus, by doing this and importing them into your Calibre library, they will also now automatically be filed by author name in your Calibre library folder, even outside of the program itself. (You can then delete the original file you downloaded, as it will be copied into your Calibre folder. Or throw them unsorted into a fic folder for double paranoid backups.)

I don't know if this would work if you download in html or pdf, though.
