Directory Watcher

Post by orthodoxmonster »

Ive been using EG for a little over a year but im just now starting to try to customize and figure out just how much I can do with EG. Im wondering if there is a way to stop my event from triggering with the directory watcher plugin if a file is deleted. Basically i just want to disable the file deletion trigger but keep the file modification or creation triggers.

thanks

I think you would just need to make sure the "DirectoryWatcher.Deleted" action is NOT in the EG configuration tree where the macro that is fired by Directory Watcher is.

Have you tried creating and or editing some files in the watched folder and see what triggers what?
