I'm having an issue with searching.

I'm having an issue with searching.  I have a task with a word that I'm looking to find.  I have it within a particular list, and when I am at the top level of Checkvist with all my lists displayed, I try a search for a key word in that task, and it does not find it.  If I'm in the list itself, it search finds it. Am I missing something to enable a global search?  Is it possible to do a global search?

Thanks for your help!

    Hello Marcos,

      The global search reindexes your lists once per 10 minutes (roughly). 
      Also, the global search works for full words only, and doesn't search word parts (as opposite to in-place filtering).

      Global search is done either by clicking the "Search" button or by pressing Enter twice after entering data to search field.

      Does it help?
      Regards,

    Unfortunately, no.  I am still not able to find an item in my list that exists within another list.  I read the recommendations on the search ahead of time, so I was using whole words.  I thought perhaps it was case sensitive, so accommodated that, but still I am unable to do that search.  "Nothing found   :-("  It's been at least 4 hours now.  Anything else I'm missing on my end?

    Thanks!

    Hello Marcos,

      This sounds like a bug. If the problem reproduces for one word only, or for different ones? Could you give us some more details on this? You can use e-mail to provide more information.

     Thanks!

    Burgess Xavier  Thanks a lot for letting us know. Looks like we have to review search subsystem in Checkvist to see what can be wrong there.

I'm really enjoy using checkvist, you are adding great features very quickly.

I'm really enjoy using checkvist, you are adding great features very quickly.  What I feel is missing is more use cases.  How are people using Checkvist?  What are some recommend workflows?  How many lists do you have? User Stories will not only help those of use already using Checkvist to be more effective, but attract more non-technical customers. I like to keep my lists at a minimum.  I only split out for sharing but I'd prefer not to. Here are my lists: * Inbox:  This is where zapier based integrations go.  I have Jira tickets and emails tagged with "!action" going to list which I process daily. * The List:  This is my primary list.  Everything is here.  I use sub-nodes for different areas. * Honey Do:  This is the list my wife and I share to make sure we know what we both want done around the house. * "Client Project" - I have a few Lists I share with clients (Free lance web developer). I"m looking to write a more detailed blog post. How are your l...

Hello friends

Hello friends, We are considering to change behaviour of move up/down command using ctrl+arrows for lists with hierarchy. The new approach is available on our beta site, https://beta.checkvist.com . Could you please try it out and tell us what you think? Thanks! https://beta.checkvist.com

Hello friends!

Hello friends! I'd like to ask for your opinion regarding multi-line text editing. This suggestion comes from one of our Russian-speaking customers Dolina Zamkova so here is a translated abstract of our email conversation. Current problem: When you write multi-line text, you must press 'Shift-Enter' first, then use 'Enter' to start a new line, then 'Ctrl-Enter' to submit the text. Wouldn't it be easier to have a setting that will allow using Enter to always write multi-line texts, and always submit on 'Ctrl-Enter', like you do it in text messengers? So we could add a new account-wide setting, on the Settings page: () Finish editing by pressing 'Ctrl-Enter' (convenient for multi-line text) What do you think? Do you write multi-line texts in Checkvist at all? Other thoughts of how we could make it better? :)
