Macro search modifiers dont support the "?" prefix

[Ralf_Reddings]

Code: Select all

from-disk:content:obsidian         #this works, the files with that word are found
?from-disk: content:obsidian       #this works, the files with that word are found

fd:content:obsidian                #this does work, the files with that word are found
?fd: content:obsidian              #this does not work, the files with that word are not found

disk:content:obsidian              #this does work, the files with that word are found
?_disk: content:obsidian           #this does not work, the files with that word are not found

I have both

fd

and

_disk:

defined as macros in my macro file:

Code: Select all

....
"_disk","::from-disk:"
"fd","::from-disk:"
....

is

?

not a prefix used to modify a search modifier to force it to act as "global" or are

?from-disk:

and

from-disk

just two separate modifiers?

The ? prefix only works on search modifiers. (not macros)

Please consider changing your macros:

Code: Select all

"_disk","?from-disk:"
"fd","?from-disk:"

and use:

Code: Select all

fd: content:obsidian
_disk: content:obsidian       

I have put on my TODO list to treat simple macro aliases as real search modifiers.

Aah, that clarifies things for me. this solution is ideal, thank you;

Code: Select all

"_disk","?from-disk:"
"fd","?from-disk:"
