How do I enable or disable version detection for each folder?

To enable or disable version detection on a per-folder basis, you must first configure a setting in the project settings:

Notes: To perform this action, you need the “Project Admin” right. => What can project admins do? In addition, Advanced Version Detection must be enabled. => What kind of file name schemes can I configure?

Open the Project Settings (1.) and scroll down to the “Version Detection” section. Click the Edit button there (2.).

A new window will open. Here, you can turn on or off (1.) the “Deactivatable per folder” option by clicking the corresponding button. Then click Save (2.).

Once you have activated the “Deactivatable per folder” option, you can enable or disable it independently for each folder.

Note: To use this feature, you need write rights for the corresponding folder. => Rights management and creation of the project folders

Navigate to the desired folder, click the 3 dots (1.), and then click Advanced version detection on (2.).

The setting will then change to “Advanced version detection off.” Version detection is now disabled for this folder. To re-enable it, click Advanced version detection off.

Information: This setting applies to the selected folder and all its subfolders.
