So, I don't know what I need to do differently. But when I add files to the watch folder Transmission doesn't pick them up. I am able to download through transmission, but I have to add the files manually.

I've included a picture of the options under the plug-in drop down on the left. In all the posts about transmission I've seen they have different options.

All I want is for transmission to automatically pick up files in the watch folder.

It's the simply the top character in alphabetical order. Just puts the folder at the top so I can see it more easily in Windows. I've change the naming, still doesn't catch files in the watch directory.

I've had the same issue. Might be a permissions thing. I had to manually edit settings.json in the transmission config folder within the jail. Changing it from the webgui did nothing or at least didn't save.
