Folder monitor doesn't seem to work

[VexingEnmity]

In the tips section it says that it will automatically download files from the folder it is set to monitor. I have it setup to monitor a specific folder and it everything seems to be running correctly as I can see via the logs. However it does not download anything put into the monitored folder.

I have it setup in a docker app on Truenas.

I am attempting to use this without any arr apps as I have a different process setup for that side, I'd love for it to just automatically download files from the set folder which it sounds like it should be doing.

Any advice is appreciated.

I can confirm this bug. I have Putflix set to download TV shows to the folder that Sonarr uses, and same with movies and the radarr folder, but it doesn't download anything other than what sonarr and radarr put in. I spun up an additional plundrio container and created a specific putflix folder, but no dice. I even tried changing Put.io's default download directory to putflix which didn't fix it. The only thing I was able to get working was chill.institute. I downloaded the same season through there and that was the only way I could get it to work.

Apologies guys, I would love to look into this but am currently occupied. Will get to it as soon as I can, but may take a while!

No worries man.

A bit more info on my situation. Setting the folder to put's default download folder works after making put my default magnet link handler, this means any magnet links used through put auto downloads to that folder and plundrio grabs it just fine, this works OK for my setup for now. On the side where I'm using apps like Medusa and Sickchill with a specific folder set plundrio is working just fine on those folders and apps.

I do have to have 2 instances of plundrio setup to monitor the different folders which isn't a huge deal.

So overall I have a working setup, but it would be great if setting it to just monitor a folder and it grabs anything that ends up in there regardless of which app puts it there would be great since the current setup doesn't let me use put manually for things I don't want plundrio to grab automatically since the default download location is being monitored.
