Bug ID: 467786
Summary: Wishlist: Include Subfolders in Advanced Search
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version: 7.10.0
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Searches-Advanced
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Please add an option to the advanced search so subfolders can be automatically
included. The default behavior of requiring the explicit selection of children
is not flexible enough for saved searches because it doesn't account for
new/renamed folders. For example, I have an 'Incoming' folder to hold all new
files for processing and use advanced searches to help focus my tasks. When
I'm done processing, those subfolders get moved to another location. Because
the subfolders are always changing, I have to keep updating the search criteria
to include all children.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create new advanced search
2. Right-click parent album/folder, choose Select->Children
3. View search results and save as a stored search.
3. Add new folders to parent album or subfolders within
4. Rename some of the folders under the parent album
5. Run search again
OBSERVED RESULT
Added/updated subfolders do not appear when running the saved search - must
edit search every time the folders change to include Children.
EXPECTED RESULT
Desired result would be to include a checkbox (or another UI approach) in Album
section to include all subfolders, at which point the search would
automatically include any new/changed folders under the album every time the
search runs.
