Hi Ovidu,

I've nearly got this sorted now 🙂 In the Admin, cron screen there is an 'Add MySQL Drop' button. How do you sepcify the files which you want to be dropped when the ?

I  can see the option to drop files in the Generate backup screen, but they seem to apply only to the particlular manual backup you are doing at the time. There isn't an option to save them for use by cron.

Thanks

Bill

Hi Bill, the "Add Mysql DROP" button has the same functions inside the cron as well as on the Generate Backup screen, it refers to adding a drop table myql query when creating the mysql backup, is does not refer to a filename location

 

Hope it helps! Ovidiu

Wow, my typing was bad there! Question was:

How do you specify the files to be dropped when the cron job runs?

Thanks!

Inside the Cron config area there is a text input area called "Excluded Directories" right at the bottom, you can add there files/directories you want to exclude
