Description of my issue:


Hi Nikolaos,

I have more than one site hosted on my server. I don´t want to have these other sites included on my backup. In other words, I want to backup my hole site, my hole www folder, except for these other sites (other folders). I will make the backup of these other sites individually, on their own administration panel.

Can I select the folders on www that i DON´T want to include on the backup? How?


Thank you very much and congratulations for the component.

Go to Components, Akeeba Backup and click on File and Directories exclusion. I believe that's what you're looking for.

PS: We've got a video of this feature if you want to better understand how it works before trying it out.
