Help with filters - exclude directory everywhere

I’m tripping over the filters in duplicacy. It would be so nice with an easier way like the proposed CrashPlan implementation for the non-savy.

Anyway, my current problem is this. Synology spams the directory @eadir everywhere and I want to exclude that from backup. When I say spam it really makes that directory in almost all other directories so I need some kind of wildcard matching.

Anyone got a suggestion for this?

Thanks!

Welcome to the :d: forum, @chokojon!

Is this what you need?

-*@eadir*

Remembering that this line must be placed at the beginning of your filter file, because the order matters:

Thank you @towerbr!

I did as you suggested and moved the filter to the top.

That did the trick!

(for anyone else on a synology the dir is actually @eaDir with a capital D)
