Way to search for notes with backlinks


Recommended Posts

Given all the things for which you can use contains/the filter menu  for I'm surprised that EN links and backlinks are not included. Surely more useful than contains:numberInteger!

@PinkElephant's suggestion of contains:url is a good one (certainly for finding links). However this will also give clickable emails, note urls and web adresses in the body of the note. This search string makes some progress in weeding these out - but I still have results that I don't understand. The danger of course is that if your note has both external web links and internal links they will not appear.

contains:url NOT (contains:webclip OR contains:email OR http*)

I'm using a Boolean search string as this is now available for everybody and seems to give slightly different (better?) results than the traditional (add a "-" to negate) method.
