0 Level 5* gazumped 10,384 Posted December 14, 2018 Level 5* Share Posted December 14, 2018 Just for information, and pending Evernote being able to consider this as an option at some point in the future, I use a "text-expander" - Phrase Express (although it does WAY more than just expand short codes into longer words and phrases) to insert the date and time in my notes in various formats, and to insert other words and phrases to avoid repetitive typing. I haven't tested it with the search box, buy I'd imagine you could set up a range of Ctrl+<key> shortcut to generate search terms like intitle: as necessary. Link to comment

Please add the option to search only the title of the note in search settings PERMANENTLY. I moved this discussion to the Feature Request Forum Evernote/Mac has a search builder feature. There's no intitle option. I find it easy to just type the search term As per the others, I'd use scripting if this was a serious concern. Also, there are also other search terms to be addressed Link to comment

0 Don Dz 165 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Using AutoHotkey, entering two short characters (either qq or qv) gives me the desired search (after first copying the search string) . This is is the code I use: :*:qq::intitle:^v :*:qv::intitle:"^v" 2 Link to comment

Not with the above phrase, it just wraps intitle around whatever is in the search bar. However, I also have a hotkey (Ctrl+<minus sign>) which places any text I've highlighted into the search bar in All Notes context, no matter what app the text appears in. Easy enough to add the Intitle phrase to the end of it to get an intitle search for whatever the highlighted text may be. Just haven't had the need. Link to comment
0 hafeesh 2 Posted February 9, 2019 Author Share Posted February 9, 2019 I also created an autohotkey to insert intitle: Now if i press F6 the cursor will move to search bar... then if i presee F7.. "intitle:" will be inserted.... Link to comment

"intitle:" will be inserted.... That's great if that's enough for your needs. The AH script below can add more automation, if you like: 1-It will copy any text in a text field in Evernote, if selected/highlighted, and will paste the clipboard into the search box as an intitle search. Or 2-it will change any text in the search box into an intitle search (uncheck "Clear context on Search" in Options, Search, otherwise the Search box will be cleared without copying anything). I use Winkey+Z for the hotkey. #z:: IfWinActive ahk_class ENMainFrame { Send ^c Sleep 100 Send {F6} Sleep 200 Send ^a Sleep 100 Send ^x Sleep 200 Send intitle:^v Sleep 100 return } else return For exact matching, replace ^v with "^v". If anything other than a text field is selected, it might not work correctly. If script misbehaves, using higher numbers for "Sleep" should remove any errors. Link to comment
0 Paddy Paddy 15 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Yes! I use intitle all the time, and I would love to see a button in the button bar for this. What other software requires you to type the name of a frequently used feature? The problem is, sometimes I spell it wrong, leave out the :, etc etc. Too much friction. Link to comment
0 Paddy Paddy 15 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 I use the "intitle:" search operator a thousand times a day to find notes with a certain word or phrase in the title. It's one of my most used features in Evernote, it's bread and butter. I wish there was a button in the menu bar (or somewhere else in the UI), so I could get to this with one click. Link to comment
0 Level 5* DTLow 5,721 Posted February 20, 2020 Level 5* Share Posted February 20, 2020 I added my vote My preference would be a "button" in the Search box Requests for this feature have been merged To indicate your support, use the vote button at the top left corner of the discussion Link to comment
0 Level 5* CalS 5,111 Posted February 20, 2020 Level 5* Share Posted February 20, 2020 Workaround. I've added a PhraseExpress hotkey for this. Whenever I press Shift+Ctrl+` context changes to all notes with intitle: in the search bar. Takes less than a minute to create the phrase. FWIW. Link to comment
0 Gideonblaze 0 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Most of my searches are "intitle:" Instead of having to type it out every time, it would be great to get a keyboard shortcut or other method to reduce keystrokes. Please! Link to comment

Please! You can roll your own with a text expander like PhraseExpress. I have just such a hot key, Alt+Shift+I. It adds intitle: and wraps quotes around whatever is in the search bar. Not that hard pending EN adding or not adding such a thing. Link to comment

Keyboard shortcut (text substitution) is available on my Mac and iPad Also scripting on my Mac (Applescript) The screenshot from my Mac shows an intitle: shortcut I merged posts requesting this feature Link to comment
0 Gideonblaze 0 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Appreciate these responses, but honestly, going to a 3rd-party workaround is a royal pain. Considering the prevalence of this use-case, it should really be a feature of the core product, no? Also, I want it for all devices (in my case Mac and iPhone, for now). Link to comment

For me though, rather than wait for something which may or may note be a feature of the core product in EN's view I found it worth the effort to create some of my own hot keys in areas where EN does not have them. Particularly reminders. Plus I use PhraseExpress to automate repetitive functions in other apps as well. Horses for courses. 🤷♂️ Link to comment

Tried the keyboard shortcut, it's way clunky. We deserve this feature! Come on! I pay $70/year and typing "intitle:" is something I do 50x a day! Love this product. The only things I think the devs should be working on is: 1) Speed; 2) Intitle shortcut. Link to comment

Not sure what is clunky about a hot key like Alt+Shift+I or whatever is free that one would want to set it to. A hot key is a hot key. Another product in the mix for sure though. Link to comment
0 frumess@nyc.rr.com 1 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Adding my voice to the chorus urging Evernote to provide a shortcut or checkbox for "intitle." And PLEASE make sure it is available in Evernote Legacy -- I am not converting to the new version for a number of reasons. Link to comment
0 Level 5 PinkElephant 6,274 Posted May 21, 2021 Level 5 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Legacy is end of life - what it has got, is there, no new features, not even bug fixes (if any are found). Personally I use legacy for some features that v10 is still lacking. For normal tasks it is increasingly v10, which is gaining new capabilities with each release. Not quite enough yet, but getting closer. Link to comment
0 qofmiwok 12 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 I went back to legacy a while ago, but the past few days it's freezing up a lot. Anyone else having this issue? Link to comment
0 Level 5 PinkElephant 6,274 Posted May 21, 2021 Level 5 Share Posted May 21, 2021 No issues. Since legacy works off the local database, not the EN server, maybe check your computer when it happens. You can use the activity monitor (Mac) or task manager (Win) to look for CPU or memory intensive jobs. Link to comment

I don't want to type intitle: always.
Please add the option to search only the title of the note in search settings PERMANENTLY.
Thank you.
