Sorting Rules
Posted: Sun Mar 15, 2026 4:32 pmHi everyone,
Over time, as I've built up more and more rules in Hazel, things have started to get pretty messy. I have rules scattered across folders with no real order, and it's getting harder to find what I'm looking for.
I'm wondering if there's a way to sort rules, either alphabetically, by date created, or by date modified? I've been manually dragging them around but that doesn't scale well when you have a lot of them.
Is there a built-in option I'm missing, or is there a workaround others have found useful? Would love to hear how you all manage and organize your rules as your library grows.

Thanks in advance!
