Hi!
Can you add the default button in the filter window?
I think this is useful to re-apply default filter directories and files.
Thanks

Hi!
It used to exist a button "Default" in the window Configure Filter, now it's gone. I think this button is very useful to restore default filter options like the one that exists in Global Settings. Is it possible to re-add this button?
Thanks.

Yes, that's true. But like that i can't control how many versions to keep, and If i choose versioning, all the files are still renamed with date and time.

I agree. I'm glad that this being developed.

But in my opinion i think that would be best just to create 2 options in the
versioning:
- Versioning by Filename
- Versioning by Folder

Like this, i think it will separate things and it would be easier to develop
and easier for the user to choose ...

Hi! again.......

Example:
We will have normal backup folder
z:\backup\
|-docs
|-works
|-etc...

And the versions folders of the older files that where deleted or overwritten
(all without changing the name of files)
z:\backups_versions\
|-FFS 2012-10-01 22:00
|-docs
|-works
|-etc ...

Hi!
I'm asking for another option about Versioning. I don't know if it's already
implemented, but i find no option about it.
So, the thing is that now the Versioning permits do put in another folder
older versions of files and appends them the date.
Now if we choose Versioning and Limit 1, we ...

Thank You...

Hi!
Can you add the variable %weekday% or something like this ?
So we can use Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc...
I need to make backups with the day of the week.
Thanks
Nuno Leite

I totally agree with you Zenju.

Seeing things like that, it seems that you choose the right way.

keep up the great work, and let's what the future brings.

To be honest i really don't think i will use this feature. Only just in a
special situation when it would be the only way. Just in a ...

I agree with the advanced options.

And of course, Open Source Rules.........

Thanks

Great, it seams that you have thought in everything.

But, can you think about this option? What about creating an option for the
user to choose the way he would like to do?

Then this would fit to everyone.
Just the option to save the database with the same name and in the same
location we ...

repeating the last post:

Hi!

For me there are some drawbacks:

1 If the database file is deleted? from that location?

2 You are adding files to the sync folders that the users don't want. At least
i don't... ;)

3 You are spreading files all over the places when we do a synchronization ...

Hi!

Before everything, i would like to congratulate you... this program is getting
better and better.

Now, there's something that i would like to say about the file sync.ffs_db.

You are saving this file in the folders that are synchronizing, i don't really
agree.

Think like this... If i ...

I did that, and i found that the only thing that needs to be changed is the
<Folder> to <FolderPairs> and of course </Folder> to
</FolderPairs>, and then this block as to be outside the
<Comparison> and inside the <MainConfig>

Then all the other configurations are correct and everything is ...

So, what do you suggest?

Can i still read the settings from the older files, and then recreate the
folder pairs, only? Everything else is recovered?

Or is it better to recreate everything from the beginning?

I have 10 settings saved from v. 2.2 and i don't know if i can remember
everything ...

Hi!

I just downloaded v. 2.3 and i was trying to read the settings i have saved
from ver. 2.2.
It gives an error reading some settings that are new and not present in the
ffs_gui file. This is ok.

But the problem is that he reads some options but not other, for example the
folders that were ...

Hi!
The folder "System Volume Information" is not appearing in the synchronization or comparison. Is this ok?
I know this is a special folder, but as Recycled is appearing i think this should appear too, or are you removing this by default from synchronizing?

Thanks

Ok, i didn't saw that in the comparison result. My mistake. And i understand your explanation.

I would like to give a tip, unless i'm missing something, are you considering in writing a small manual? I think with all that options, like the one i mentioned and others i saw here and sometimes a ...

Hi, and thanks for developing this great application, and giving it to the world for free.

I only want to ask why did you removed the equal sign from the filter view at the bottom?
I find that interesting... cause sometimes i need to see the files that are equal and don't need sync.

And again ...
