Hello. I use Hazel very successfully. but I need a rule that I can't do. I have photos cataloged in years, months and days and it's too much. how do i take specific files (in this case photos) from sub folders without copying folder roots?

You'd need to have a rule to do the move/copy in one rule and in a separate rule have Hazel go into subfolders. Check the chapter on subfolders for more details on doing this.

Then I solved it.
but I need to understand how to listen to the subfolders because Hazel does not search unless I give him the command.
.it is a matter of obtaining the photos (for the video, another condition must be made) from the iCloud folder of Photo where the photos of the cloud apple are put, copy where you want to like. useful for those who do not pay for the cloud and have only 5GB go around. since iOS blocks other backup apps.
