Exclude/ignore folders


posts: 4 5 stars
Hi,

I have a problem when I sync a local folder to Zenfolio. As I have my RAW (NEF) files in a sub folder of my local albums. I do not want the original folder to get synced. I also get a folder named Photos in each album in Zenfolio.

I have organized my files like this:
./YEAR/
  |
   --> MONTH_Some album/
       Photo1.jpg
       Photo2.jpg
       |
        --> original/
            Photo1.NEF
            Photo2.NEF


So a great feature in my case would be if sync could completely ignore folders with a specific name or limit on number of folder levels.

Regards
Stian

Stian,

Ignoring folder with given name is a very good suggestion. I will definitely consider it.

I know this is a more than one year old feature request but finally it is implemented biggrin.
Since version 1.6 Media Gallery Manager has a feature that makes it possible to define a list of files and folders which shall be excluded from the synchronize remote operation (bulk upload).
Some information about this feature is available on this page in the Help Center.

For the folder structure you describe a single exclusion filter defined like this

**/original/

should accomplish what you want.

Harald.
