I use FileBot with this string {n.replaceTrailingBrackets()} - {s00e00.lower()} - {t.replaceAll(/[!?.]+$/).replaceAll(/[`´‘’ʻ]/, “’”).lowerTrail().replacePart(’, Part $1’)} or this more simple one {n.replaceTrailingBrackets()} - {s00e00.lower()} - {t}

There is also a Plex preset format that is more complete and even creates/uses the correct folder structure but I create my own structure that follows the Plex convention so I find using the simpler format string better for me.

There is a small one time fee for FileBot but it is well worth it. There is also a way to get an older version for free but I do not really know how and I think software like FileBot should be supported.

You did not say what OS you are using but I think FileBot is only for Windows but you can visit there website to fine out for sure.
