Hello. Ive spent the last 1.5 hours looking at how to do this, and I can't find it, or I'm searching wrong. If its been answered, I'm very sorry.

I have a folder: FileDrop
In that folder, I have subfolders:
Doe, Jane
Doe, John
etc.

I have a need where if I drop a file in the folder 'FileDrop', if the name matches, it gets moved into that folder (only if it exists!)

So, if I put a PDF file called "Doe, Jane.pdf" in FileDrop, I want Hazel to see 'yup, there is a folder called 'Doe, Jane' and move it there.

If it doesnt match...dont touch it, or in this case, maybe turn it red!. Either or.


My mileage so far is, I can create folders, but I don't want that.

Any help is appreciated!

The Sort into Subfolders action will create folders as needed so I think you'll have to use a script to do this.
