v1.7.1 (2024-01-11)
- Add: Translation of humanized dates
- Add: Screenshots / icon for https://joplinapp.org/plugins/
When I change the "created date" on a note, it doesn't reflect in the overview.
I used:
<!-- note-overview-plugin
search: notebook:Testing_Created_Date
fields: created_time, title, excerpt
alias: created_time AS Date, title AS Title, excerpt AS Excerpt
sort: created_time ASC
-->
I'm on a Mac:
OS 10.15.7
Joplin 2.13.13
And thanks for creating this plugin. It's awesome!!
When you edit the time stamps, you have to use the user_updated_time and user_created_time, the other both are Joplin internal for the sync.

@JackGruber I wanted to take the time to say thank you for this plugin which is the bedrock of my workflow, and without it I would be, frankly, at sea. It's great to see you're still making updates to it. I have no requests, no features I'd like to see added (beyond perhaps ticking To-Dos off inline but i believe you've covered why that's not possible already), and it's solid as a rock. It just works for me.
Have you got a BuyMeaCoffee or something similiar that you're allowed to publicise? I'm not sure how Joplin's community views donations!!
Interaction is with this implementation not possible, or at least I don't know the way, since this question has come up several times.
No, I haven't, because the plugins are actually all used by myself and that's why I developed them

Hello all,
I've read almost all this long thread but I didn't found a solution to my problem:
is there a way to make complex searches in titles like:
search: title:"word1" AND title:"word2"?
If so, what is the correct syntax?
Sorry for my ignorance.
And thanks for this great/useful plugin.
Tony
See Joplin search documentation
For example:
title:word1 title:word2title:"word1 word2"
Thanks for the link.
But after reading the search options I can't find a way to use the OR operator for title.
What about searching for title contaning "word1" or "word2"?
TIA again.
Tony
Use the any:1 filter for a OR search
any:1 title:word1 title:word2
Thanks for your reply.
This should be what I'm searching for but it doesn't work:
Here is the markdown:
WORKING
<!-- note-overview-plugin
search: notebook:"Marmellate e conserve 2024" title:confettura
fields: created_time, title
alias: created_time AS Creata il, title AS Nota
sort: created_time DESC
-->
NOT WORKING
<!-- note-overview-plugin
search: notebook:"Marmellate e conserve 2024" any:1 title:confettura title:sciroppo
fields: created_time, title
alias: created_time AS Creata il, title AS Nota
sort: created_time DESC
-->
This code simply doesn't output anything.
It only works if I remove the notebook tag.
Perhaps it is not possible to use the any tag while searching in notebooks?
I simply would like to search for word1 OR word2 in a specific notebook.
Perhaps I am not using the correct syntax?
Tony.
With tags its working, but not with the title keyword.
I think you need to create an issue for Joplin for this.
Good morning,
possibly I am missing something from the search syntax, but is there a possibility to search for todos without a due date (for instance if I were to create something like a backlog)?
Tried things like -due:* but that wasn't it ...
Regards,
kai.

Hi, thanks again for this really nice plugin.
I was wondering, would it be possible to specify custom fields in the notes that are being searched? E.g. I want to create an overview of (Music) Albums where Album is stored in a separate Note. Ideally, I could also add a column for "Artist", "year", "rating", etc. which would have to be defined in some front matter.
Maybe this is out of scope but I'm just wondering if something like this is possible.
No, because the Note Overview plugin does not have its own search function it only uses that of Joplin.
If then via the user data to the notes, but I don't think these are currently searchable.

Is it possible to tweak the sorting a little bit?
I'm using the plugin to show books of a specific autor in an autor related note. And it seems, that my sorting, without a loeading 0, doesn't count as aspected.
A Book series with 12 title is sorting 1, 11, 12, 2, 3, etc. I know. It's normal for computers and can be escaped with a trailing 0.
But is it also possible to integrate this in the Plugin?
For a better understanding what I wan't to achive, here is a little bit of my data.

In the Notelist the sorting is like I want it.
The sorting is done internally by Joplin, the plugin only shows the result of the API call, but does not currently sort itself.
It seems that sorting is done differently on the GUI and in the API.
When I have a little more time again, I could take a look at how sorting could be implemented in the plugin.

Maybe I didn't understand the question, but as a workaround until Jack checks his plugin, you can use the Plugin: Markdown Table - Sortable, which allows you to sort the table by the column you need.
Good Idea. I've tested it and it sorts equal to the Note overview Plugin.
At second. I want the Note overview Plugin to automaticaly update the list. And if there is made an update (in my case automatic every 10 min) it overwrites the sorting, if there will be found another note to add to the list.
But thank you for your idea!
