Select the **Included** folder and see what files/folders are there and create New Exclude[s] Rule at the top. * I had a subdomain called **_portfolio_**, so I added the rule **_portfolio/_** which included everything in that folder. * Hope this helps. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BackUpWordPress] Exclude files in root?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/exclude-files-in-root/) * [George McKnight](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixel8/) * (@pixel8) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/exclude-files-in-root/#post-4724992) * I’m also looking for a solution for this. I have a subdomain that I don’t want backed up, so it would be good to be able to select/deselect certain folders/ files. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Easy Image Gallery] Lightbox not working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-not-working-16/) * [George McKnight](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixel8/) * (@pixel8) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-not-working-16/#post-4164707) * For some reason I am experiencing the same issue where the Lightbox isn’t working.

If you know of a way (plugin maybe) that I can send you a link without ‘Joe Public’ seeing the site let me know. The form has 65 fields (online registration form for a nursery). A ‘test’ form with just 3 fields was created with the same ‘Email Details/Confirmation/ Notification’ and this worked fine. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Background Image jQuery Resize…jerky!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/background-image-jquery-resizejerky/) * Thread Starter [George McKnight](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixel8/) * (@pixel8) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/background-image-jquery-resizejerky/#post-1769688) * Thanks for the reply Shelby. I ended up using just css to create the effect.
