Search for Images for a given month in any year

[silklink]

Hi

I'm hoping this can be done - it would be so useful for me...

I see that the syntax D:\PHOTOS dm:june will find anything modified last June in my D:\PHOTOS area.

Is there a search string I can use to find anything modified in June for ALL years? So if I have images stored in that location, I would like the search to return those that may have been modified, for example, in June 2002, June 2010, June 2017 or June 2025.

Why? I often post on social media, and I want my photos to reflect the time of year. Now that it's almost October and the autumn months, I would like to see the photos I modified in October, November, and December.

All years, not sure offhand.

October through December,

dm:Oct-Dec

[void]

edit: Requires Everything 1.5:

For ALL years:

D:\PHOTOS dm-month:oct..dec

dm-month:



Alternatively, ISO8601 with wildcards:

D:\PHOTOS dm:*-10..*-12

Date syntax

Thanks for responding.

I can't get these to work - they don't return anything.

If I enter

Code: Select all

dm:2024-10

as an example, I get all photos modified in Oct 2024, regardless of the day. If I enter

Code: Select all

dm:10

it fetches all photos modified in 2010.

I don't think the wildcards are working for me. If I enter

Code: Select all

dm:*

I should get everything, but I get nothing instead.

Sorry, the above searches require Everything 1.5.

It's not possible to search for specific months for all years in Everything 1.4.

Fantastic! Version 1.5 is doing just what I wanted

Thanks very much for your help

I've just checked your search string method and it also works in the latest (beta) version. Thanks very much Chris
