I end up using Advanced Search and using filters (especially [regexp:text[]]) a lot but I always forget the filter syntax for certain things so I add extra filter drop-downs with some pre-set templates using the system tag: $:/tags/Filter
https://tiddlywiki.com/#SystemTag%3A%20%24%3A%2Ftags%2FFilter I am not sure where the documentation describing this is but you can clone core tiddlers as starting example and tweak: https://tiddlywiki.com/#%24%3A%2Fcore%2FFilters%2FAllTags For various projects I mulled adding another search box to be able to use some basic syntax to use in an "intermediate" search like quotes for exact string matches and maybe some boolean operators to combine multiple search terms. It would be probably be fairly simple to add another Advanced Search tab with "SystemTag: $:/tags/AdvancedSearch" with a search box that interprets that extra syntax over to the equivalent filter. The question is where do you end with additional syntax before you run into the complexity that compares with filter syntax. There is always one more thing that you want to add. /Mike On Tuesday, May 11, 2021 at 12:22:59 PM UTC-3 Atronoush wrote: > I think most of you have the same opinion as me that the TW standard > search loses its efficiency as soon as your Tiddlywiki gets large.
