Using multiple search criteria without filter?

[Mark S.]

If I wanted to look for say, "Kmart" inside a group of tiddlers tagged as "Receipts", is there an easy way to do that without having to use a filter like:

  [[tag[Receipts]regexp:title[Kmart]]

??

It seems like there ought to be a way to apply multiple criteria without having to write a messy filter or build my own search box. Is there a simpler approach?

Thanks!

Not sure what you have in mind when you ask for "simpler" but for end use, perhaps a drop down select list. Or a ToC?

I mean a search box where I can type something like

tag:Receipts Kmart

and quickly see just the  Kmart items tagged as receipts. This type of syntax is used in Simple Note, Calibre and various online libraries.

Javascript should be able to make something like that, but there would be a lot of edge cases to worry about when writing the parser. It would be much easier to make multiple fields that you can fill to search for titles, tags, etc. and use that to generate a filter.
