Move Subfolder Only

Is there any way to find and move subfolders only?

For example, if I have a folder "Recipes" with a subfolder "Chicken" is there a way to have Hazel find the "Chicken" subfolder and move just that into a new folder?

For what its worth, I am using Workflow to generate folders and subfolders in Dropbox, and want to move some of those subfolders to a different folder. I can provide more details if needed.

Thank you!

Can you have Hazel monitor the Recipes folder or are there other folders with subfolders you want to move? If it's just the Recipes folder, then have your rules match the "Chicken" folder and do the move. Files and folders match rules in the same way for the most part.

Thank you very much for the quick reply! Your solution is not exactly what I'm after, but it did point me in the right direction. A very minor change to my workflow fixes the problem - and actually simplifies much of what I'm doing. And I guess that's the whole point!

Again, thank you!
