If this is answered elsewhere I am sorry, I looked...I promise!

I am sorting through tons of files that became alienated from their organization via iPhoto going all Maximum Overdrive on me. I created a workflow to put all the photos in folders by creation date. I now created a workflow that I can drag folders from the same month, extract the contents (variable "edit items"), ask what to name a new folder (variable "folder name"), create a folder with that name and put the extracted variables in that folder.

It works fine until it calls for the variable for the folder contents. It only returns the first file of the items selected. It properly selects all files when you set the variable for "edit items", but when calling it only returns the first.

The first pic is the workflow.
The second is a grab of the variables. It was hard to get a full shot, but you can see that the variable does not return all of the set value.
