SubStandard Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 The .SyncIgnore file seems to ignore folder names with a space. This is my .Syncignore file# .SyncIgnore is a UTF-8 encoded .txt file that helps you specify single files, paths and rules # for ignoring during the synchronization job. It supports "?" and "*" wildcard symbols.### OS generated files #.DS_Store.DS_Store?._*.Spotlight-V100.Trashesehthumbs.dbdesktop.iniThumbs.db# Don't Sync these folders #foofoo bar The folder called foo doesn't sync, which is what I expected, but foo bar is still synced. Do I need to encapsulate them somehow? I've tried double and single quotes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fukawi2 Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 I would consider that a bug personally, but to work around it you should be able to replace the space with a '?' (single character wildcard) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdunbar Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Hello, Any progress on this issue? I am having problems ignoring folders with spaces in the name as well. I tried the "?" suggestion, but that did not work. I finally gave up and renamed the folder in question so that it no longer has a space in the name. Thank you,Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
