selective sync
« on: April 12, 2025, 10:08:02 AM »
I have a specialised PM+ catalog with about 4,000 photographs. Many of the photographs are in folders together with other photographs that are not wanted in this catalog. When I do a catalog sync these unwanted photographs are also brought into the catalog. It seems impossible to stop this, is that right?

David,

I have a specialised PM+ catalog with about 4,000 photographs. Many of the photographs are in folders together with other photographs that are not wanted in this catalog. When I do a catalog sync these unwanted photographs are also brought into the catalog. It seems impossible to stop this, is that right?

If the unwanted photos are mixed in with wanted photos in the same folder then no, it cannot be stopped.  If the unwanted photos are in their own folders separate from images that are wanted then you can add the folders that contain the unwanted photos to the list of Folders to Exclude from Sync in the Catalog Sync window.
