Hello all. THis was asked before and I am sure there is an easier way to do this without applescript using KM11.
I want to select a folder in Finder. I want to trigger an MK macro that creates a list of folders in this selected folder. How can I do that?
This will display the subfolders in the selected folder. If you want to include all the child folders, change the first action from alphabetical to recursive.

If you want the folder names without the full path, you could add a Split Path action before the Apened Variable action to capture the base name from the full path to a different variable (Local__FolderName):
Thank for the response and creating the macro. My apologies, I think I described what I want to do incorrectly.
I want to select a folder. In the selected folder I want to create ie, 3 folders (when I said list, that was unclear)
Folder 1
Folder 2
Folder 3
Hope this makes sense. What I am trying to do is to create a folder structure as a template for each new client. Each new client folder has a set of predetermined list of folders. (ie, accounting, correspondence, photos, videos, invoices. etc,).
Thanks again
I have a macro for you that I've used for many years:
Download Macro(s): Create sequential (numerical) empty folders.kmmacros (7.8 KB)
Navigate to the folder using Finder then trigger the macro.
With an input like this:
The macro would create folders like this:
I forgot that this macro also need another sub macro as follows:
Download Macro(s): [LIB]_PadAtFront.kmmacros (8.5 KB)
EDIT: since I created these macros years ago I probably would not write them like this now, but -hey - they work 
This is what it sounds like you want:
Make Folders in Selected Folder.kmmacros (2.9 KB)
Thats exactly what I was trying to accomplish. Thank you kcwhat and all responded.
