Jonathan Tompkins 1 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 All my projects are tagged as !p_ followed by a name, such as !p_my_dog_eats_grapefruit or !p_mydogeatsolives . If I search for tag:!p_* I don't get any results on either Windows or Android. I've checked https://dev.evernote.com/doc/articles/search_grammar.php and it seems it should work. Is the exclamation mark or underscore causing problems with this search? Link to comment

Is the exclamation mark or underscore causing problems with this search? I created a tag called !p_s_sugar and was able to find the note I tagged it with using: tag:!* tag:!p* tag:!p_* tag:!p_s* etc etc Are you using the most recent version (10.6.9)? There have been quite alot of improvements to tag searching in this version although I am unaware of this being an issue. Link to comment

I know you have tried on both Windows and Android but it might be worth trying the web version as you work directly on the database with no complications caused by synchronisation etc. Link to comment
Jonathan Tompkins 1 Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 That works and I've got it to work on Android. I think the problem was that I want to search for more than one tag and it doesn't seem to like that when one of them contains a wildcard. Link to comment

Jonathan Tompkins 1 Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 No, because I want to find notes with all the tags. Link to comment
Jonathan Tompkins 1 Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 It's now working and I really don't know what I've done differently. Thanks for your help. 1 Link to comment
