Single tag search


Recommended Posts

Hi there,

would anyone know if there's a way to search for notes containing only one, specific tag.

In other words, what's the best way to find notes tagged with single, specific tag and no other tags?

Cheers.

Hi.  No specific way that I can think of - tag:<mytag> to get all notes with that tag,  and then List view and sort by tag column.  Select the notes with no other tags and apply a <temp> tag (if necessary) while you work...

"no other tags" is not a filter option with Evernote's search feature

This is do-able using applescipt on a Mac; the note's tag count can be identified

No simple way. 

If it is a one off, you can rename the tag to !!tagname and then go to all notes and sort by tag ascending.  Those notes should then be first in the queue.
