Stop Readarr from adding all books by Author (lemmy.one)

Ahoy mateys! I recently added Readarr to my arsenal, and I'm having trouble with some settings. I can't figure out how to stop Readarr from automatically adding every book from an author. I have my settings set to None for both the specific authors and globally, but still everytime I add a new book, that authors entire library is added.

Does anyone know a way to stop this? I don't need every Stephen King novel ever written to appear in my interface.

From https://wiki.servarr.com/readarr/library

If you add an individual book, and select None* for the metadata profile, only that book will show up under the author when it's added. If you want other books for that author added, choose an appropriate metadata profile. Note that None does not apply any metadata filters and you may get unwanted foreign editions. To work around these create a metadata profile as prescribed in the faq

This is the answer! Setting 'None' to metadata profile worked!
