Hi,

Is there a way to define the default setting for synchronizing with a server?

The current default is not to delete remote files and the use PUT&GET.

I always want to delete the remote files and put them which i need to change all the time since its not the default.

So can i change the default to delete and put?

I use GET and PUT.  But I don't synchronize server files.  It's potentially dangerous for me because I often have local files that are not yet on the server and the last thing I want is for software to delete files that I may want to keep.  

If you can't remember which files need to be uploaded, right-click the local site folder.  Select > Recently Modified and choose a date range.  Use Shift or Ctrl+click to deselect files you don't want included.  Then hit the UP arrow to upload them.   My server overwrites old files with new ones.
