Smart Tags

[vogelap 27]

In previous generations, EverNote had a wonderful 'Smart Tag' feature -- it was sort of like an automatic 'find & tag'. It would look for user-defined keywords in the note and then, if it found matches, automatically apply Tags.

This was GREAT for organizing -- if you, say, were a recipe collector, you could configure a Tag to search for "recipe" and other keywords. When it found matches, it automatically tagged them with the user-specified tag. Users could manually add or remove tags as well.

Adding this feature would be awesome in current-gen Evernote.

I don't recall a "Smart Tags" feature in Evernote   
Until implemented, you might look at third party Filterize

I cannot remember the exact feature name, but I distinctly remember them... I think it was in the 2. 2.x versions, so quite a while ago. They're kind of like saved searches...

I think the features I was talking about are SmartSearch and Advanced Search Syntax... They were in 2.2x versions, and were REALLY great.

Advanced search syntax still works and has actually been expanded.See

Thanks. That's good to know... I didn't realize it had been expanded.

I shall have to explore further the feature I'm seeking; I know I'm not explaining it well.

I found the Saved Search functionality... This leads me to my refined feature request:

Can Saved Searches be displayed in the Tree structure on the left sidebar, along with Notebooks, Tags, and Shortcuts? That would make them more visible, and more usable.

I agree that saved searches are less visible than in the legacy version. If you give them memorable names then they will come up when you search and you can also make a saved search a shortcut.

I FOUND IT! The 2.2.1 feature I was thinking about is: Automatic Keyword Categories that automatically adds notes containing keywords to Categories (Tags).

Is that still in the 10.x versions?

Don't think so. It is not even mentioned in legacy, so it probably was axed long time ago.

P.S. Something like it still exists for the WebClipper and to automatically push emails received into a folder. I don't use any of it, correcting the bad guesses takes more than it helps.
