Like @PinkElephantI am confused by your post. There is no error. I was just pointing out that the original poster was looking in the legacy version for a feature which is only available in V10.

I was reminded today of the ability to search the note url using the advanced search syntax. I wanted to find any notes which I had clipped from Tim Harford's website which I had forgotten to tag with Tim_Harford (I need a tag as some notes come from other sources) sourceurl:https://timharford* -tag:Tim_Harford EN search is not perfect, but this sort of detailed search is really useful, and makes it definitely worthwhile learning the Evernote search grammar. https://dev.evernote.com/doc/articles/search_grammar.php Sadly though, the documentation needs updating. Even long standing hacks such as sourceurl: are not referenced, yet alone more recent search strings like contains: (although you will find it elsewhere in the documentation) Come on Evernote. Your search is great - get the main search syntax documentation upto date so everybody can easily find what they need.

The pre version 10 of the Android App does not support checklists only checkboxes. You will need to use checkboxes. Remember though that V10 will not allow you to put a checkbox at the beginning of a line - it will automatically convert it into a checklist. A number of workarounds have been proposed on the forums but the simplest is just to add any character before the checkbox. This is most easily done using the text shortcut. e.g. .[]

Things that might work are Help -> Troubleshooting -> Force Reload File -> Sign out <username> -> choose the option to "Remove any Evernote data from the device". When you sign back in again it will reload the database so it will take a while to get back to normal.

Just to clarify I think the workflow you have in mind is: Open the note in the weird "no note list" view Open this note in a new window (three dots menu -> Open in new window) Then use the back button from the main window Alternatively you could just open the note in a new window by right clicking the shortcut link and avod the "no note list" view altogether. You may well be right, but for me the ability to open in a new window already provides that. I often want to see a note in it's context. eg same notebook, similar date etc. While I can easily open the notebook from the note, or even filter on a tag from the note, I then have to scroll through, and find the note I was working on. Not a deal breaker for me by any means - it just seems sub-optimal.

It's these little tweaks and tricks that make me reluctant to ditch Todoist. I can see massive advantages of having one system for notes and tasks but EN tasks is not quite there yet for me.

I like your approach and it probably is the least clicks solution. By my reckoning: Using My templates within the gallery is 4 clicks total vs 3 for one of EN's own Right clicking and duplicating from a shortcut is 2 clicks. Right clicking and "copy to" from a shortcut is 4 clicks. There are ways of speeding this up using keyboard shortcuts (eg ctrl+N vs New -> Note or even quicker the "double click New hack") It's all pretty subtle. I am just disproportionately miffed that I can't add my own templates to the new note because EN think their templates are better than mine - probably a failing in me!

That is all you can do. You can't even use all of the Evernote templates, only the ones they have selected. For me, this massively reduces the usefulness of templates. It is quicker to produce your template as a note, add it to "shortcuts" and then duplicate it by right clicking the shortcut.

Geographic search was moved in to the professional tier. Geographic search: Find notes based on the location they were created using latitude, longitude, and radius.

Interesting. For me the snippet date is the same: Note history, however, is in the dd/mm/yyyy form but is in the UK format as I would expect: If only everybody in the world used ISO8601!

What version are you using and where does it use this format? This issue has been raised before and it doesn't seem to be easy to work out where exactly it is getting the format from. For me the date format is in UK format as expected. For example in the note information: At the top of a note: or when I press alt+shift+D I never see anything like 3/7/22. 10.39.6-win-ddl-public (3451) Editor: v150.2.18380 Service: v1.53.4 © 2019 - 2022 Evernote Corporation.

I'm not quite sure what you want. You can already add a link to any note in any other note. The notebook is irrelevant. This thread, as I understand it, is about adding automatic back links. So if you add a link to note A into note B a link to note B will automatically ve created in note A - so you automatically get links in two directiuons.

Agreed. There is always the alt+ctrl+V option in this case. And thanks ot the wonders of the EN OCR process, a screen shot (which is available for pdfs in the browser) will become searchable but obviously you can't do anything with the text.

Not true in my experience. You need to select the text first and then hit the webclipper icon. Alternatively you can copy the selection and use the global "paste into EN" shortcut. (alt+ctrl+V on windows but you will need to look up the Mac equivalent)

I agree that it would be useful. In the mean time don't forget the global keyboard shortcuts that you can use anywhere (ie not just when EN has the focus). You might find them more convenient than right clicking the icon in the system tray.

There have been lots of threads about this so you might want to add your vote to some of them. In the mean time the generally accepted workaround is to start a blank note and alter the 4 heading styles (which includes "Normal text") to however you want hem. Then save the note as a template. Whenever you create a new note start from that template. If you are not a paying member you won't be able ot creat a template but you can just either copy or duplicate the "template" note. This obviously has no impact on notes you have already created. In that case you could try increasing the zoom level.

There is complete parity between windows and Mac. Both work the same in V10: alt+shift+D to add the date and ctrl+shift+D to add the time on Windows and the equivalent on Mac. It is the documentation which needs updating. Incidentally, I would always recommend users use the in app list of keyboard shortcuts rather than relying on the documentation. They do change quite often and, in my experience, are more likely to be correct in the app list.

I agree that this is not correct for V10 so should be updated. I can't see any warning that this applies to an earlier version of Evernote. The new version should include both alt+shift+D (to add the date) and ctrl+shift+D (to add the time).

Not a valid website address so I have no idea.

Interesting. I'm not surprised it found Spec: because I seem to remember that punctuation, other than the underscore, is stripped out. I am surprised it found Specs though. Perhaps it automatically includes plurals?

Well it seems to work fo rme and @eric99Are you sure you are typing "wall " with both the quotation marks and the space?

Nice workaround. Slightly annoying though that you have to insert a checkbox each time from the menu as the [ ] shortcut immediately converts the bulleted list into a checklist.

Without entering into to the debate about which is "correct" or whether there should be a userdefined option, I will just note that <shift><tab> immediately takes you into the title area.

"wall " works fo rme
