Search in Agenda is simple and fast, you just type a few search terms and you’ll search instantly across all your notes. The hits present in the currently selected overview or project are shown at the top of the result list, the ones in archived projects or the trash are shown at the end. However, …

Really struggling with the query editor here! I want to create a pinned overview of notes from my “Practice” category that are either not done OR edited today. So something like: category(Practice) && (edited-date(today) || !done) But I haven’t been able to figure out how to assemble this in the q…

It is not necessarily as applicable as in Boolean equations. A simple OR between two terms does not lead to the expected results. I am not sure if it ever worked, as I can no longer verify it. Here, for example. [IMG_7482] There is an AND between the terms. [453D2057-63FB-48E3-93C6-042B37234…

Thank you Roms. I don’t entirely understand the logic, but it appears to work!

We decided against requiring people to type AND and OR. Instead, each term can be “required” or “optional”. By default they are required, which amounts to AND for everything. You can set them optional if you like, which has an OR like effect. Basically you decide if a term MUST be in every note, or…

Then this is no longer valid, correct? [Bildschirmfoto 2026-02-16 um 18.28.45]

Personally I would prefer the normal logical connectives, but the current setup seems to be equivalent in function, although I find it a bit confusing. I also dont understand why the above query works for “A AND (B OR C)”, and more fundamentally I dont understand how it can support hierarchies in lo…

Where is that from? Probably a very old post on the previous iteration of the search. We completely rewrote it a couple of years ago. We deliberately steered clear of logical operators, mainly because they are quite geeky. If you are technical, it works fine, but it would rule out a lot of people. …

It would be great if there was a way to edit a saved search / smart overview. If I have renamed something in my Agenda (project, category, colour) then I want to update the search syntax to use the new naming. Currently this requires deleting the current overview and creating a new one (and trying t…

That was almost two years ago now, and I still stand by it. [image] I do not see the search queries in the intelligent overview Feedback I have been experimenting a lot with the new search and have come across a problem that is actually limiting me. I have cr…
