Sequential looping in automator?

Hi,

I’m trying to do a batch rename of files scattered in multiple folders, and I was wondering if there is a way to make it so that Automator selects the next folder in the directory /or specified with each loop it does.

I’ve tried using multiple selection in the “Ask for Finder Files” but this only provides me with a massive output file instead of one file per folder selected. And selecting one, means I have to manually select each folder as the loop repeats itself (pointless really, and tedious).
I’ve also tried “Get Specified Finder Files” adding the various folders, but again I end up with one massive output file rather than a folder-specific file.

Is there a way to do this?

Cheers!
Kerapi
