FIlter TIderls with field value

[paulgilbert2000]

HI ,

i am trying to list a number of tiddlers that have a specific value in a field i have created

so basically I have a field  called " status " that exists in all tiddlers in my wiki , and usually  put in the field value text like , inprogress , pending etc..

how can i view all tiddlers that have a specific value i , like for example "in progress  "

i know how to filter with Tags , but i cant filter with a field value , is this possible ?

[TW Tones]

Try this example filter

{{{ [all[]has[fieldname]] }}} if the fieldname contains a non blank value

and use

{{{ [has:field[fieldname]] }}} for field exist with value or empty.

To build on Tones' reply ... I think you wanted to find tiddlers with a specific value in the status field.

See the field Operator for filters: https://tiddlywiki.com/#field%20Operator

So to extend Tones example:

{{{ [all[]field:status[specific status value]] }}}

or since all unknown operators are assumed to be fields (and to use your specific search example) you can use the short form:

{{{ [all[]status[in progress]] }}}

I think that should get you what you want.

ok sorry to come again

it does work on its own , however cant seem to get it work in my existing code

i originally had it querying tags

I changed it , to look for status instead ,but obviously i did something wrong , is it possible to incorporate  {{{ [all[]status[inprogress]] }}}  within a List filter macro

[Michael Wiktowy]

You can certainly use this filter in lists but you have a bit too much going on in there at the moment.

The {{{ [ ] }}} construct is called Filtered Transclusion but all you need is the filter part in a link widget. So you only need to include the [status[in progress]] filter part and not the {{}} tranclusion part.

I don't think that the all[] was doing much in any case.

thanks mike

i removed the transclusion , now i am getting this  error ,but not sure where this missing bracket should be?

[Michael Wiktowy]

The error message is a bit misleading. You have too many nested square brackets ... I think that the filter should be [!has[draft.of]status[in progress]sort[created]]
