Excluding files and directories not working for me

Hi!

I'm using the newest version of WinSCP and I'm trying to exclude a couple of directories from syncing but I can not get it working. I've set the following excludes:

Excluding files:
./application/exports/*
./application/logs/*
./public/images/products/*
./public/uploads/*
.\application\exports\*
.\application\logs\*
.\public\images/products\*
.\public\uploads\*
Excluding directories:
./application/exports
./application/logs
./public/images/products
./public/uploads
.\application\exports
.\application\logs
.\public\images\products
.\public\uploads
But after all those rules it's still trying to transfer those files (see attachment). Anybody who has an idea what I'm doing wrong?

Subfolders mask not working

Hi,
I'm add this:
*/media/zoo
*/components/com_zoo
*/my-edit
to include masks. But when I sync, synced only my-edit folder. Can you help me? What I do wrong? Thank you.

Because the media and components are not on the include list, so WinSCP never gets to zoo or com_zoo.

Re: Subfolders mask not working

Thank you, but what I must do, to include only this */components/com_zoo folder? When I add */components, then comparisons all subfolders.

That's correct. You have to exclude the subfolders you do not want to transfer.
