Dear moderator,

I've heard great references about this software and I decide to use it and prove by myself. However, I'm facing some small difficulties and I quite sure that it is simple, but......


1) To test, I've pointed some words as 'Cashflow', for example, to Hazel find in the Desktop. Here is the pic
image upload

The file is IN my desktop, as you can see here:
free image hosting

I need to put this kind of file in a Subfolder, inside the Documents folder. What am I doing wrong?

2) I need that the Hazel take all files with the word 'Contrato'. I have the file "ContratoVendaAnuncios-2012.pdf" and Hazel is not taking it. How could I put it to workout?

Kind regards,


D.

Your issue is solved by referring to the type of conditional branching you have asked Hazel to perform.

Issue #1: Change (ALL) to (ANY)

You have asked Hazel to match a file whose name is cashflow at the same time the file's name is financeiro. This condition will never match because a file will only have one name.

The attached rule shows this:

Code: Select all

if (all) of the following conditions are met for (the file or folder being matched)
     Name is cashflow
     ...
     Name is financeiro
     Name is finança

Do the following to the matched file or folder
     ....


Change (all) to (any) and your issue will resolve.

Code: Select all

if (any) of the following conditions are met for (the file or folder being matched)
     Name is cashflow
     ...
     Name is financeiro
     Name is finança

Do the following to the matched file or folder
     ....


Issue #2: Use "Name Contains"

Similar to the above rule, you can do something like this:

Code: Select all

if (any) of the following conditions are met for (the file or folder being matched)
     Name contains contract
     Name contains contrato

Do the following to the matched file or folder
