Please look at the bottom of this page (under Support Policy Summary) for our support policy summary, containing important information regarding our working hours and our support policy. Thank you!

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Please attach a ZIP file containing your Akeeba Backup log file in order for us to help you with any backup or restoration issue. If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it.

Description of my issue:

Is it possible to create 1 profile, where I exclude folder 1 and 3 and another profile where folder 2 + 4 are excluded?

I only find the exclution of folders on the main settings.

I need this other option :-)

It should work exactly the way you want it to. When you exclude the folders in Profile #1, you won't see those exclusions when you go into the exclusions page when Profile #2 is active.

Ooohhh... I have totally misunderstood the setup!
I thought the settings in the frontpage was over all settings, not per profile!

Great, that makes sense now, thank you so much!!!

That one is tricky, it makes perfect sense once you figure it out, but getting there can be a problem.

You're welcome!
