Hi Kevin,

Sorry was running out of the door when I submitted this. All too brief.

Here's a screenshot of the changes. Only the two additional properties "Modules" and "Show User Stories" have been changed. I don't know what the other updates are listing.

There have been a few occasions where I have done a full export then ran a report against that export to which uSync reports composition changes. Resaving the document type several times and running the report again will then yield no changes.

As far as the logs go there are no indicators that uSync is failing. All imports in the log report success. Oddly I re-ran it this morning and it worked.

Hopefully this helps.

Hmmm... Now it wants me re-create document types I have previously deleted.

The odd thing is that both instances are pointing to the same database, with the config files copying from one location to another.

Hi Kevin,

Here's my config files. I've only turned off automatic import as it was deleting properties.

  <!-- uSync Core Settings

    Mappings help usync do property value mappings,
    each mapping describes how a datatype may store
    internal ids inside umbraco. 

    uSync can map Ids between versions for:

      Content (and media)
      Templates
      DocumentTypes
      Tab Ids
