Really can't live without BTT - such a fantastic app. One problem I'm having is, since the 4.667 update, any new key sequence actions or groups of actions do not work when put into a folder. A set of actions to open a website and go to a certain page, for example, work fine until I try to group several of them (or even a single one) into a folder. However, items that I've had in folders before this update work just fine. Seems to only be a problem with key sequences. BTT version 4.684, Mac OS 14.6.1 on a Macbook Pro 16" (2020). Anyone have any suggestions?
Can you post an example? I just tried putting a key sequence in a folder but that seems to work fine here
Thank you for the response - hadn't expected it so quickly. Here is one example. Doesn't open up when it's in a folder but does open if not in a folder. Must be something I'm not doing right.
Weird I can't really think of a change that could break this. Could you go to Help => Export Diagnostic Debug Information and send the result to me? (via andreas@folivora.ai )
My question has nothing to do with the problem. Just out of curiosity, why is a pause necessary before the “Wait for Image to Become visible” action? Doesn't that just extend the time before BTT starts searching for the image?
In some instances the action flow will stop part way through if there are no delays. Doesn't always happen but it stops often enough that the delays consistently get me to the end.

I just tried this again after a couple of updates and once I put any action flow of key sequences into a folder they don't work. Seems to only be an issue with the key sequences/typed words. I've sent examples and Diagnostic Debug Information but am still having the issue. Any suggestions?
Currently experiencing this bug — triggers put into a folder and then activating them doesn't do anything but works fine if not in a folder. I'm on BTT 5.182. Thanks!
@nino what kind of triggers?
I think the items mentioned in the first post. I just called them triggers because that's what is displayed here "Groups & Top Level Triggers". Hope that makes sense. The items inside that folder doesn't do anything when activated. I was just organizing my Key Sequences / Typed Words collection.
does it work if you have at least one key sequence that is not in a group? or after restarting BTT?
Possibly check with 5.187 alpha - I can't seem to reproduce the issue here (tested with Key Sequences)
Yes. Restarting didn't help.
I've updated to 5.187 alpha and still experiencing the same issue. I've tested — the existing items, also creating new items outside a folder, and putting them inside a folder.
Strange, is it just one level of groups or nested groups?
They do work if they are not in a folder?
One level only. Yes, they work if not in a folder
I reported this same issue a couple of months ago and ended up changing the key sequences to something else. Updating and restarting (both BTT and the computer) didn't help. Seems to only be an issue with key sequences.
Unfortunately I can't reproduce the issue, they seem to work fine here, regardless how deeply nested.
Could you maybe go to Help => Export Diagnostic Debug Information and send the result to me? (andreas@folivora.ai)
Or alternatively right-click one non-working group and choose "Export Selected Triggers To File"
Here I just created a simplified testing version of the item/trigger:
:-/ Unfortunately that works also fine here
Do you have them configured for a specific app or for all apps?
Specific app (Figma). I'm not sure if it's related to the electron-based issue stuff but I tried doing the same with Arc and it's the same thing
Ah! I think I see the issue now, I have always been testing "For All Apps", but missed a problematic database request for app specific.
Will upload a fix in 10 min
