HI
This is my first post, and I am new to Hazel, so firstly, Thank you Mr Noodle for excellent software.

I am running a basic rule to sort expenses into monthly subfolders and tagging the file, and I hoped the subfolder as well.

IF >
name / contains / expense

DO >
Move to folder
sort into subfolder ( this subfolder has a monthly string - so a new sub folder is created each month )
add tags


Whilst a tag is added to the file it is not added to the newly created subfolder, I appreciate that the rule is working on the file, but is there a way to add a tag to the new subfolder in this rule or do I have to create a completely new rule looking at subfolders.


Thank you

You'd need a separate rule. Any actions after "Sort into subfolder" operate on the file that was matched, not the folder it was sorted into.

Thanks for the clarification
