Feature request - Set Session folders in preferences

I like to work project based therefore I am using 'new session' all the time.

As I have my own workflow, with my own naming convention I would like to know if I can make a preset for different naming of the Selects / Output and Trash subfolders.

I don't want the folders to be called: Selects, Output or Trash
But e.g. 1. selectie, 2. bewerkingen, 3. prullenbak

Unfortunately I have to change the folder names manually each time I start a new project.
Would it be possible in one of the next version to have an option in the 'preferences' panel to add your own naming convention for these folders?

In the meantime is there a bypass (by chaning a file or whatever), to overwrite the current default folder names with my own?

Kind regards and thanks for listening.

  Hi,
  
  Welcome to the user-to-user forum. A feature request is best addressed to Phase One support directly for proper logging. You can use a support case for this.
  
  A workaround for your request is to create a so-called 'template session':
  - create a session, give it any name you like to remind you use it as a template and not for shooting
  - apply all conventions you like (session folder names, process recipe to use, capture name, additional folders, albums, favorites)
  - close the session and store it.
  
  Now, when needing a new session on a day-to-day base, duplicate the main session folder of the template session you created. Rename the duplicate folder and the *.cosessiondb file inside that folder according to your plan. Open that session (from CO7 or by double-clicking on the .cosessiondb file).
