Ruleset matching unexpected item Tue Jul 08, 2014 5:31 pm • by loweoj
Hi,

I have the following file name: 2014-04-23-BBC.pdf and I have the following rulset:
Image

Matched date is the date format "YYYY-MM-DD".

I do not want this ruleset to match this file, but somehow it is. I think it's something to do with the "anything" (...) options. I added them because I want the rule to ignore anything after, or before, the matched date. When I remove the "..." from the ruleset, it stops matching as expected. However, I have another rule that basically does the opposite of this rule that stops matching as well (once I update that to remove the ... too).

Does that make any sense? Any ideas?

Cheers!

What is the other rule exactly and where is it in relation to this one?
