Hi,
The new exclude_bands feature of EPW requires a small modification of the wannier90 code directly.
We have included those modification in the development version of wannier90 on GitHub
https://github.com/wannier-developers/wannier90. Therefore, to make this work you need to download the development version of Wannier90.
Note that there is also a skipband feature in EPW which doesn't require any change in wannier90.
In case you decide to use the new EPW feature with the development version on wannier90, it needs to be done in the following way:
nbndsub = 4
nbndskip = 5
bands_skipped = 'exclude_bands = 1:5'
where the number of excluded bands should be smaller or equal to nbndskip. In the case above nbndsub=4 wannier functions, and the first 5 bands were excluded from wannierization.
Best,
Roxana
