What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

I changed my saves folder for Dolphin by changing the "Wii NAND Root" and "SD Card Path" options. I then tried to move all my saves over through Dolphin using the "Import Wii Save" function on previously exported files.
Whilst the import operation is successful, the files do not seem to be placed in the correct directory, as games still do not detect a save. Moving the files over manually works.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Export a Wii Save
Change your paths for "Wii NAND Root" and "SD Card Path".
Import the Wii Save again.
Start the game, and no save data will be detected.

Which versions of Dolphin did you test on? Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which versions of Dolphin used to work?

5.0-4536
