PHP regular expression issues for excluding or including files,

I want to hide the .php.js.css extension, which can be written like this:

'files_exclude' =>'/\.(php|js|css)$/i',

I also want to hide the hidden.jpg file. It can be written like this:

'files_exclude' =>'/hidden.jpg/',

I don’t know how to combine wording, please ask Karl, thank you

I'm not an expert with regex, but I think that can be achived like this:

'files_exclude' =>'/\.(php|js|css)$|^hidden.jpg$/i',

The above will hide only exact file name "hidden.jpg", because I included ^starts and ends$. I used this tool to test:

PS! You can also create filenames that start with _files* (for example _fileshidden.jpg), which will automatically be hidden.

No, there's a mistake!

Error
Invalid files_exclude regex /\.(php|js|css)$|^hidden.jpg$/i/

I want to customize my name.

Not sure where you get /i/ from with ending/. It should be /i not /i/.

I have tried and tested it successfully from here. You can try to escape the \. dot:

'files_exclude' =>'/\.(php|js|css)$|^hidden\.jpg$/i',
