Rich Mintz 2 Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I have a parent/child tag hierarchy like this: Parent 1- Child 1A- Child 1B- Child 1C- ... Child 1Z Parent 2- Child 2A- Child 2B- Child 2C- ... Child 2Z etc. Is there syntax to search for notes that are not tagged with any child of Parent 1? (That is: notes that do NOT contain Child 1A, Child 1B ... or Child 1Z...)
Level 5* jefito 5,598 Posted May 10, 2013 Level 5* Posted May 10, 2013 No, there is none intrinsic to Evernote. Search does not consider any aspects of the tag hierarchy, unless you code it yourself in the name. For example, if you had a set of tags like this obviously contrived example:Parent-Parent-A-Parent-B-Parent-C You could do a search like -tag:"Parent-*", and that would find all notes not tagged with a tag named "Parent-" followed by any character. These types of explicit tag hierarchies are awkward to maintain, but some folks do it for just this sort of reason.

I have a parent/child tag hierarchy like this:
Parent 1
- Child 1A
- Child 1B
- Child 1C
- ... Child 1Z
Parent 2
- Child 2A
- Child 2B
- Child 2C
- ... Child 2Z
etc.
Is there syntax to search for notes that are not tagged with any child of Parent 1? (That is: notes that do NOT contain Child 1A, Child 1B ... or Child 1Z...)
