Hi,

I am new to Hazel and even though I understand what it does I still can't set up some basic rules and I hpe you can help me.

This is what I'm trying to do:

I use IFTTT, I have rules that send any pictures in albums A, B, and C in my iPhone to To a Dropbox folder named iOS Photos with folders A, B, and C, same as the Album names.

I want to set up a rule that monitors the "iOS Folder" for any incoming pictures within those Folders. This is what I did, I created a rule that says Go into subfolders, then I created a rule for folder A, B, and C.

Rule A says, if Folder name is A > subfiles kind is image > Rename with "source folder (A)" + date created + extension > import into iPhoto to albun with name A > move to trash.

I have the same rules for B and C.

None of this works for some reason, can anyone tell what I'm going wrong?

If I just watch each folder individually it does exactly what I want it to do, I just don't wanna have a huge list of folders on my folders list, instead I want to have one folder and perform actions with files in subfolders.

Please do not post and email me the same thing as I end up having to write the answer twice. I've already replied via email so I'll just post a condensed version here, which is to read the sticky article up top about subfolders. You do not want to use the "all of its sub-files" target for this type of thing.
