gotofritz 21 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Hi. I find search functionality a bit clunky, and in some cases unusable. Apologies if this has been discussed before. Please add sourceurl to the search options. It's tedious having to type "sourceUrl:" before every url term. Please allow wildcards everywhere in the search term, not just the end. Particularly annoying in URL, so that I have to type, say, sourceUrl:http://discussion.evernote.com* sourceUrl:http://www.evernote.com* etc instead of just sourceUrl:*evernote* Please add http:// by default to all sourceurl: terms that have no protocol. The vast majority of sourceUrls are going to be http:// links, please don't make us type it out every time.Thanks in advance Link to comment
gotofritz 21 Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 Another one: 4. Please do not ignore punctuation if enclosed in double quotation strings. currently there is no way to find, for example howler.js in notes. The dot will be replaced by a space, and the search will look for two separate words, "howler" and "js". Wrapping it in double quotation marks doesn't help, "howler.js" still treats it like two separate words. Link to comment

etech0 1 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 The thing I really need is to be able to search with wildcards in the middle of tags. Link to comment
BurgersNFries 2,407 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 The thing I really need is to be able to search with wildcards in the middle of tags. I posted links from the CTO of Evernote to your initial reply. AFAIK, nothing has changed in the one minute since my initial reply. Link to comment
etech0 1 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 No need for sarcasm. I was just being more specific - I don't need to search for wildcards in the middle of all search terms, only tags. Link to comment
