Hi, Noodlesoft!
I wanted to know what I am missing here.

I've got a lot of rules and all of them works but the Content contain date match for some reason.

I've tried Content contain date match with custom date pattern:
2017-­0202
2017­02­02

Thnx in advance

The first pattern looks correct. Go through the troubleshooting guide here: https://www.noodlesoft.com/kb/hazel-tro ... ing-guide/

Make heavy use of the preview and rule status features. Report back if you still can't figure it out.

Bump...
My Hazel still have problem for no apparent reason to identify Date in a PDF file as shown in new picture here.
What am I doing wrong?

Click on the red badge in the preview. See what the text actually looks like there and report back.

Apparently Hazel reads it as
Betaldatum: 2019­02­19 13:22:53
Even if it shows as
Betaldatum: 2019­-02­-18 10:35:04 in the document.

But even if I change the custom date rule from YYYY­-MM­-DD to YYYYMMDD it still doesn't find it

Can you email a sample document into support so that I can check it here? I'm wondering if there are other invisible characters in there.

Got the file. It does look like there are some weird characters in between each of the date components. Try using the "anything" token in between.
