Changing Spotlight comment depending on where file is

Hello all,

I have been messing around with Hazel for hours trying to accomplish something that should be simple. I am sure there is a combination of dates or something I am missing, and I am hopeful someone here with more experience can take a look and I can receive some guidance. I appreciate your help in advance.

Here's what I am trying to accomplish:

1 - Begin by dragging a .webloc file to the Desktop, where one of Hazel's rules moves it to the folder 'Network Testing'.
2 - After the file arrives into folder 'Network Testing', have a rule write a Spotlight comment called "Ignore".
3 - Manually move some files from folder 'Network Testing' to folder 'Interesting Links'. Have a rule on folder 'Interesting Links' that calls a shell script to act upon the files that arrive in folder 'Interesting Links' (it creates a thumbnail for the .webloc files)
4 - Have a rule that empties the Spotlight comment field (or writes "DontIgnore"--that would be fine too) on those files I just put in folder 'Interesting Links'

Thus far, I am able to get steps 1, 2 and 3 working fine. Step 4 has not been kind

What I am seeing:

What is happening is that when I manually move the file from 'Network Testing' to 'Interesting Links', only the first rule in the order applies (either the shell script, or the changing of the comment field) to the arriving files into 'Interesting Links' but not both rules. I need both things to happen--order is not important.

Also, let's say that I manually change the comment field in those files. When I move them back from 'Interesting Links' to 'Network Testing', the rule that worked in Step 2 doesn't work anymore! The comment field doesn't change as it should. I am stumped.

What I need help with:

I need to be able to have files in 'Network Testing' always have the "Ignore" comment, and files in 'Interesting Links' have an empty comment field, or at least set to "DontIgnore" AND have a thumbnail created by the shell script.

I am attaching screenshots of the rules I have now, for reference. Thank you very much to all for your time.

You do understand that only one rule can match at a time? You should combine the last two rules since their conditions are identical.

No, but that is why I posted--to be educated on what I don't know

I was under the impression that rules were stacked.

I will try combining the rules as you suggested and hopefully that works.
Thank you!
