I'm getting the hang of it! It works quite well. The manual command works when you aren't looking! i.e. click on a different note and then come back to your note-overview note and there it is! Sneaky!
It seems that the note must include the script as-is i.e. enclosed in the HTML-style rem brackets with the plugin name.
But if I have several of these in one notebook they all have the same title because a new note picks up the first line of text - i.e. <-- note-overview-plugin. There does not seem to be a way to name a note separately ...
... time passes ...
Aha! have just discovered that the note name comes from the title field at the top of the MD screen and that I can type the title of the note separately! Excellent.
So this plugin is starting to work very well for me (and all power to the coder) ...
thx for this excellent plugin - it's heaven-sent and gets me a couple steps closer to a GTD with Joplin!
Now, for improvement, I am wondering:
I have a date in the title of my ToDo's, like this: "210129 | todo123"
In this case, "210129" serves as a due date.
How can I create a note with an overview of all todos that have today's date in the title? as fas as I can see, there is no "search for string XYZ in the title field"-functionality, or is there?
Sth. like: search: type:todo iscompleted:0 title:{{date}} - but this does not work...
You could use created/updated filters.
From Joplin Search :
created: updated: Searches for notes created/updated on dates specified using YYYYMMDD format. You can also search relative to the current day, week, month, or year.
But I don't know what is the syntax for today.
I tried created:day-0, and it works...
Unfortunately, the "created:day-0" looks for the creation date of the todo - this does not necessarily is the same as the todo date itself.
The filter idea crossed my mind, too. and it works. Drawback: I would have to manually enter today's date into the formula each day... I would love to avoid this manual fiddling. It would be a workaround until maybe a filter is looking for the current date in the todos.
thank you for another great plugin. the interval changes does throw me off a bit when i first used it, i notice that when i change the update interval it will instant update the note as well.
i notice it would remove any multiple <!-- note-overview-plugin comment.
Still love this plugin, finding more uses for it every day
One minor issue though: I want to have an overview of todo's containing Tag1 OR Tag2.
But the filter as described here does not work. If I enter any:1 tag:office tag:spam which should search for notes having tag "office" or tag "spam", I end up with a list of all todo's with a tag.
