Folder Automations Tue Aug 25, 2015 7:29 pm • by rian951
Hi, I recently downloaded Hazel and managed to get it to do in five minutes what has taken me an hour to try and do with Folder Actions/Automator on my mac so a big thumbs up for Hazel!

Anyway what i've been trying to do is set a rule, in this instance on a folder "test 1" so that any files that are added are also sync'd to a different folder elsewhere in my system, again in this instance we shall call is "test 2".

What I have done so far is added the folder "test 1" and added the following rule:

All Conditions > Sync[b] to folder Test 2[/b]

I've added some test files and hey presto it works which is awesome, except if I delete or move a file, it doesnt update in the folder "test 2"...


Any ideas how I can get around this? Cheers in advance!

You need to add conditions to tell Hazel to sync again. Check out this topic for more details (and example rule): viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1593#p6500
