Hazel stops at the first rule

I put 5 rules in sequence. But, Hazel is running only the first one.
It is confirmed by the log and the preview. It is not running the next rules.
Once I disabled the first rule, it runs the second rule; and then stops there.

This very strange.

That is by design. The first rule to match is the one that gets executed. You need to use the "Continue" action if you want evaluation to continue after matching.

Seriously?
I have been using Hazel for years. So far as I remember, it used to run all the rules set on a folder. This behavior started around version 5.3 for me.

Anyways, thank you for the reply MrNoodles. I will set it up to continue to match.

Nope, it's been like this from the beginning.
