Hi:

I'm wondering how I can get synchornize files to work.  I highlight a folder and click the synchronize button and check the recursive box.  Unfortunately, that doesn't work.  All it does is collapse the file tree.  There are no error messages on the screen.  I've tried recycling the IIS server but that didn't help. I would appreciate any help on this issue.

Thanks.

Hi Sebastian:

It's not working because I see the files present on the file system but when I click the synchronize button, it does not appear in the file list. So, to answer your question in the context you asked it - the files are missing from the DNN file list but are physically present on the file system (with the correct permissions). 

I don't know what you mean by "check the database".  I have not touched the dnn database - any entires in the database would have been created by DNN itself.  I also thought that the point of synchronization was to correct the database entries to match the file system.

Thanks for any more help you can provide.

Also, don't forget that file-sync only works for file extensions that are listed in the allowed list on the host settings page.
