Marklevy9 2 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 i have been using Evernote for some time now and and loading lots of notes, forwarding emails and office attachmentsetc. Searching for these items is becoming a pain as the amount of items "found" is to great to quickly find what i am looking for. I know i can prefix a search such as "intitle" or "created" etc but this is not particular handy / user friendly. When can we get a new button on alongside the File / Edit / view buttons with a drop down allowing search by title or notebook or tabs or created date or keyword(s)? Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,068 Posted June 18, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted June 18, 2016 Hi. There's lots of help with search, organisation and tagging in the Help Center. I agree that once you have a lot of notes, a lot of search 'hits' follows closely behind. It's a routine part of database management however to curate your notes so that the list of hits doesn't become unmanageably big. The exact process will be different for each user - extra notebooks or tags may be all the help you'll need. I use 'smart' titles, with the date, source, originator and content of a document or clip. An 'intitle:keyword' search is usually pretty effective for me. On the occasions it generates too many hits, I'll tag either the note(s) I wanted with an additional keyword, or I may tag all the other notes with more accurate keywords. Link to comment
