You can specify the folder in the "Match Settings" section, and you can have it filter on specific file names within that folder in the "Log File Filter" box, if you would like.

Hope that helps! ]]> RE: Watched Folders https://www.logfusion.ca/Discussions/View/watched-folders/?ID=019b87bb-f7d0-70fd-835a-5d53124fd1e2#3 Tue, 06 Jan 2026 16:42:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.logfusion.ca/Discussions/View/watched-folders/?ID=019b87bb-f7d0-70fd-835a-5d53124fd1e2#3 LogFusion Thanks, and then how to use it? ]]> RE: Watched Folders https://www.logfusion.ca/Discussions/View/watched-folders/?ID=019b87bb-f7d0-70fd-835a-5d53124fd1e2#2 Tue, 06 Jan 2026 16:25:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.logfusion.ca/Discussions/View/watched-folders/?ID=019b87bb-f7d0-70fd-835a-5d53124fd1e2#2 LogFusion You'll find it in the LogFusion Settings > Log Categories > Change the type to "Watched Folder".

Is there an up-to-date user manual that reflects the actual UI and available features in 7.x?

The LogFusion website advertises a “Watched Folders” feature that automatically adds new log files from monitored folders. In LogFusion Pro 7.1, I cannot find any option in the UI or settings to configure or manage watched folders. I also tried to research this via ChatGPT, but could not find a consistent or reliable explanation of how this feature is supposed to work in 7.1.

Can you explain whether Watched Folders are supported in LogFusion Pro 7.1, and if so, where and how they are configured?

Thanks. ]]> LogFusion 7.1 Now Available! https://www.logfusion.ca/Discussions/View/logfusion-71-now-available/?ID=019b3355-563d-710f-97ce-515488384058 Thu, 18 Dec 2025 21:19:50 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.logfusion.ca/Discussions/View/logfusion-71-now-available/?ID=019b3355-563d-710f-97ce-515488384058 LogFusion

Need to double-check the Level column though. My stuff is heavily color coded and that made the problem immediatly obvious.
