python - get all parms exclude specific specific folders

[papsphilip]

# check if the parameter is inside a specific folder.

#this code doesnt
        tmp = ['info','Image Settings','Color Settings']
        for folder in tmp:
            if folder in parm.containingFolders():
                print("excluded : " + str(parm.name()))
                continue

# this code works
        if 'Export Presets' in parm.containingFolders():
            continue

cant really figure why the list method doesnt work. Something i am missing?

found another solution that works.
 

for parm in parms:
    
        skip_parameter = False

        # Check if the parameter is inside a specific folder. This is in case I want the parms of the HDA itself
        for folder in exclude_folders:
            containing_folders = parm.containingFolders()
            if folder in containing_folders:
                # Exclude parameter
                skip_parameter = True

        if skip_parameter:
            continue
