I think that may be useful to add the possibility to exclude folders during the scan using for example regex. My idea is that under the folder that I add to digikam I have also sub-folders or sub-sub-folders that I wouldn't like to include and see in digikam but in the meantime I also wouldn't like to move them in another position. Using regex could be very nice because is flexible, anyway the possibility to use metacharacters is very important. Thanks a lot. Luca
Please take a look to 5.5.0 release where we have introduced a exclusion feature about Database scan. It's located in Setup/Database panel. Gilles Caulier
Thanks for the reply. I've already looked at the feature present in the 5.5.0 but it seems that I can exclude only folder with a specific name (moreover without spaces). My need, instead, is to exclude every folder which name is not always exactly the same but only contains some words. Luca
