Using a "Move..." action in a synchronized rule

Hello,

I have Hazel monitoring the Downloads folder on my and my wife's machines, using the same rules, via a synchronized ruleset. The rules scan files for content (looking for downloaded financial statements), rename them, and then move them to a "Statements" folder that's synchronized across both machines using Resilio Sync.

The problem is that the path to this to this synchronized Resilio folder is different on each machine — so if I set the "Move..." action target correctly on one machine, it's then appears as an unknown folder on the other.

Is there a solution to this dilemma?

You'll have to either make the folders the same on each machine or have different rules. Note that which rules you enable is local to each machine so you can create two rules, sync both, but enable a different one on each instance.
