FTP Synchronization missing files/folders

Hello

With the "FTP Synchronization" action I'm trying to backup an FTP folder, but I see 2 issues for now :

1/ if at the source there's an empty folder, it's not created on the destination (even I've checked "Exact copy")
2/ it does not sync folders or files starting with a point (like .htaccess for instance)

Am I missing something?

1/ if at the source there's an empty folder, it's not created on the destination (even I've checked "Exact copy")
FTP Synchrinization action copies files only now
2/ it does not sync folders or files starting with a point (like .htaccess for instance)
Probably these files have HIDDEN or SYSTEM attribute
Now FTP File loop and FTP synchronization actions don't show hidden files

I've put your wishes into our ToDo list

Also one note: use SSL FTP actions instead of FTP actions.
SSL FTP supports both modes: SSL and plain FTP.
We kept a simple FTP plugin for compatibility with older tasks. It is obsolete.
