Untagged Overview This plugin finds notes and to-dos without a tag and tags them with a configurable tag. The plugin will also automatically remove the given tag if another tag is added to that note or to-do. Settings options allow you to set the name of the tag for untagged notes (eg."Untagged", "N…

You are a genius! With your little search tip you've simplified this plugin so much!

The plugin has now been published!

Does it take a certain time before it finds an untagged note? It found one from several days ago, but is not finding a test one that I created. I've restarted Joplin a few time to no avail.

It should find it near instantaneously, At least within a few seconds, though it does take a while to iterate through each untagged note, maybe 1 per second. Are you sure the test note contains no tags at all?

Still hasn't found my test note, and I'm sure there are no tags. I'm on Joplin 1.8.1. Could that be the reason? Also, when I deleted a tag from a previous note, that wasn't found either.

In fact, when I just did the -tag:* search, there were 6 other tagless notes that weren't found by the plugin.

Thats very strange. Especially seeing as the plugin uses the search endpoint with that exact query. Try deleting the untagged tag to autorecreate it

I have only taken a quick look at the plugin: tagNotesWithoutTags and untagNotesWithTags is called continuously in an endless loop. I think this could result in x calls per second joplin.data.get does not respect pagination, so all data is never displayed Joplin Data API | Joplin

Deleting the untagged tag sort of helped. It did find the test note that it couldn't find before. However, the name of the tag is strange: >>71557>>untagged<<71557<<. Also, it still doesn't find any new untagged notes I create.

Thank you. If you don't need to add a custom tag, you can also search directly:

-tag:*
