[Feature Request] Allow selection/modification of multiple folders in index settings

Post by sbrblz »

Would it be possible to allow us to select and modify multiple folders in the Options > Indexes > Folders window? For example, if there are a lot of folders in the list and we would like to set the same rescan schedule for multiple folders, it has to be done one by one. Same with deleting multiple folders, if the list is long removing folders has to be done one by one. If selecting folders with differing options, we can have the checkbox be filled in to signify that not all folders have the same option selected.

I will consider allowing multiple folder selections.
Thanks for the suggestion.

I have on my TODO list to add a virtual "folders" ini setting (similar to the ntfs_volumes) to make this easier from third party tools.

For now, it might be easier to directly edit your folders in your Everything.ini.

Thank you for considering the feature, it would definitely make things easier for those that have many folders indexed.
