Hello, Luis
It was a great option in Gravity - making target directory like "z:\backup\%FNDATENOTIME"
Is there any chance to include this feature in this lovely Reflector?
And please, couple of things for implement
* for FTP as target - creating target directory if it doesn't already exist, when creating task (or testing ftp settings, or creating backup). Just like it works for local backup. Optionally, perhaps
* add %TASKTYPE parameter - The TYPE of the task that is being executed (full, diff, etc)
* may be add smth like %DATEYEAR, %DATEMONTH, %DATEWEEK, %DATEDAY and so on - for use in file/directory name substitutions
updated: I'm found a way to create target as "z:\MyBackup\%FNDATENOTIME" - you just need to use "+Add/manual", then type/paste full path, then type %FNDATENOTIME - it was easy
also, suddenly, there is a tricky way (using %FORMATDATETIME) to get target structure like this: Z:\MyBackup\2023\01\07\myTest.zip
not so perfect, just working ![;)]( "Wink")
hint - "Alternative date-time format" option set to yyyy\\MM\\dd, I didn't find it in the documentation, just guessed
I hope, %FORMATDATETIME - the only use of "alternative date-time format" option
but.
still miss this way in ftp target (haven't tried it yet for sftp):
