Only dev knows but i think it's the way he coded it.
Try to use them both and you will notice that allow list just override anything skipped
which is obvious by definition, but some skipped items, need generally to be skipped in
any case.
Just a quick example :
general skip : *incomplete* (folder)
site skip : CD3 (folder)
site skip : CD4 (folder)
etc...
allow : *upload* (full path + folder)
If on source you had that directory:
TITLE/CD1/files.rar
-------/CD2/files.rar
-------/CD3/files.rar
-------/CD4/files.rar
-------/(incomplete)-CD4
Instead of getting this with current options :
UPLOAD/TITLE/CD1/files.rar
------------------/CD2/files.rar
------------------/CD3/files.rar
------------------/CD4/files.rar
You will get this :
UPLOAD/TITLE/CD1/files.rar
------------------/CD2/files.rar
------------------/CD3/files.rar
------------------/CD4/files.rar
------------------/(incomplete)-CD4
So an enforced tickbox would desserve its place in the skiplist options,
and i know that for years but developpement was dead.. Let's hope
they are still working on it because the feedback is minimal once again.
