I'm running BBEdit 10.5. I have a web site that I hadn't worked on recently. Tonight I tried to update a folder.

Instead of the dialog box that I've always gotten for Update Folder..., and that the BBEdit User Manual describes (A box containing the folder path, with an up/down arrow control next to it; A "Skip (...) Folders" checkbox; and a "Check Nested Folders" checkbox), I now get a dialog box with a single label, "Folder to update:", and a chained series of folder icons representing the path, with a clock-icon popdown menu next to it for selecting the folder. But the two checkboxes are gone!

What happened? How do I check just the 30 files in a folder and ignore the 300 files subfolders?

Oh, no! I just looked, and the Check Folder Syntax dialog box has suffered the same transformation.

Regards,

Neil Faiman

I just noticed the same thing. I'm hoping there is a way to *NOT* update nested folders. Please let me know if there is.

I'm hoping that there is a workaround. Perhaps Patrick Woolsey can chime in here and let us know if there is anyway to create a script or use Automator to restrict the update to the top level and NOT update files in nested folders.

The excellent staff at Barebones don't always read or respond to this wonderful discussion group. They *do* however seem to respond very expeditiously to messages sent to 'support'.

Thanks for the heads up, Bucky. I just sent them an email.
