This workflow is used at least three times a day, so thanks again! I would like to ask for an alternative. And I would like that I again that the parent folder name is grabbed, but there only the first 6 digits or up to the first hyphen. 230823-Testordner/ 230823-Testordner/230823-stock 230823-Testordner/230823-graphics So that the date is taken, but nothing behind it and then the suffix is appended again. Is that possible?

@Vero Thank you for your response. Jes I prefere Z to A because my data system uses a date in every folder name. 230629-ABC for example. And I like to have the newer folders on top for easy access. Your solution is perfect. I even have a ton of Browse Via Alfred actions that I use to get to specific locations, and I never saw that there is an option for custom sorting. Perfect for my use. Thank you very much. This helps a lot!

Hi Stephen, jes, they are always available. I think it is strange that alfred does not remember that. Can you check if it remembers the sorting A->Z or Z->A on your mac? Unfortunately, I have no way to check this on another computer.

@Vero And to be even more precise, the setting for sorting by Name, Creation Date, Last Modified Date, all remains, only the sorting within the setting remains A -> Z in my case. I would like it to display Z -> A by default.

I honestly would not have noticed now that something does not save. Yes I sync my settings via Dropbox. Seems to be set correctly.

Hey, yes I know that, but unfortunately it resets for me every time I navigate somewhere again 😕

Hi, I use Alfred a lot to get to certain folders. Now all my files and folders start with the date 230627 for example (date auto expansion ), but now I like to have the newer folders on top and so I always have to reverse the order with CMD+SHIFT+S, but this every time I navigate again. Is there a way to set a default? Thanks!

I use a simple workflow. I assigned a shortcut (F12) with the action „Pass through to workflow" and as argument „selection in MacOs” and connect this to this script. This way you have to select a folder in the finder, press F12 and the folder are created by this simple press. Hope that helps

Funktioniert perfekt. Dank dir!

Thank you very much! You are a legend. What if I would like to have words as suffix instead of numbers? Like xy_stock, xy_graphics and so on?

I already use your workflow very often. I would just like to make a change that I somehow can't manage myself. I would like the workflow not to ask for a new name, but to always follow the parent folder. So I want to create a folder that I name XY. Then I want to execute the folder action which creates subfolders (XY_1, XY_2, XY_3 etc.). How can I work around the second variable? Unfortunately I don't know enough about this topic Thanks for your help.

Thank you very much! This works perfectly!

Hi Alfred community. Is there a way to save a text separately instead of putting it in the clipboard history? Reason: I want to create a workflow so that I can cache a certain text at the push of a button so that I can use it in a workflow at a later time. I want to save the file path of a file at the push of a button to be able to retrieve the path again and again during the day. Since I want this path to change every time I press a button, I can't pre-program a snippet or create the workflow like this. Would anyone have an idea? I hope I could express myself understandably. Thanks!
