jdfwarrior got a reaction from yakmoz in 2-byte char(asia) with python 3.x in script filter ... help~
Those characters aren't properly normalized and therefore don't create valid XML output is more than likely the reason for this. Andrew added normalization options in some of the earlier builds of Alfred 2 but there were still issues with it so it was removed temporarily. I believe he's going to go back and take another look at it in the future.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from mt5 in Worfklow Organization
Rather than an option to duplicate a workflow, plans are to add the ability to copy and paste parts of workflows. Another option (you can see it starting to take shape in b105) is having templates and/or presets when creating new workflows.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from netofrombrazil in Simple question: How to open your ~ (home folder)
Download this workflow. Then you can call up Alfred and type 'home' and press enter, or you could simply press cmd+opt+ctrl+H. Of course, with the workflow, both the keyword and the hotkey could be customized to your liking.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from lucasgpr in Search in pdf files
Alfred can indeed search within the contents of a PDF document but it wouldn't open the document to the location that the search term was found in the document, it would only open the document. This COULD be done would be rather tricky and would take a bit of a custom workflow to achieve it. You would have to create a workflow to save the search text, then using a script filter search for matching files manually. After a file is selected, using the remaining portion of the workflow to open it, and then search (using Preview?). The search could be done using AppleScript like this:
tell application "Preview" activate tell application "System Events" tell process "Preview" click menu item "Find…" of menu "Find" of menu item "Find" of menu "Edit" of menu bar item "Edit" of menu bar 1 keystroke "{query}" end tell end tell end tell Where {query} would be replaced by the search text

jdfwarrior got a reaction from andersedvardsen in Access wordpress dashboard areas of pages quickly
Sorry it took so long, I've been a little busy this week. Try this.
Commands:
wppages - shows a list of the wordpress pages
wpsites - shows a list of all sites you have saved
wp - used to search your sites, select one, the select the admin page to navigate to
wpaddsite - add a new site. ex: wpaddsite http://alfredapp.com Alfred Site
Thoughts?

You mean something like..
tell application "Alfred 2" to search "Example Text" ?

jdfwarrior got a reaction from Sridhar Katakam in [Request] Validate current webpage for CSS and HTML
Firefox's AppleScript support is poor. I don't know that it's possible to easily grab the current URL via AppleScript and so to achieve this, you may have to provide the URL yourself. That being said, the rest could be rather simple. You could create a script filter that has two options, to validate the html and to validate the css where the argument for the two items would simply be the URL to the W3 Validator. You could then press Enter to open that page or press Shift (or Cmd+Y) to QuickLook them and not have to open a browser.
cat << EOF <items> <item uid="valHTML" arg="http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri={query}"> <title>Validate HTML</title> <subtitle>Validate athttp://validator.w3.org/check</subtitle> <icon>icon.png</icon> </item> <item uid="valCSS" arg="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css21&warning=0&uri={query}"> <title>Validate CSS</title> <subtitle>Validate at http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator</subtitle> <icon>icon.png</icon> </item> </items> EOF If you wanted to open the page, you would simply add an Open URL item behind the Script Filter and connect the two.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from JMoVS in Search in calendar
If you add an Open File to the back end of the file filter, it will do one of two things. If Calendar.app is already open, it will display whatever month/week/etc that the event falls in. If Calendar.app is not open then it will simply open Calendar.app. This could potentially be enhanced with a bit of AppleScript but I don't know.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from Prepare Batmobile Alfred in Tweetbot Custom Search
AlfredTweet is more of a Twitter client. You can send tweets, see mentions, send DMs, follow, unfollow, block, unblock, etc.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from oulipo in Weird behavior of youtube-dl
This is caused by Alfred not importing your profile. When creating workflows it's good to remember that the only thing in the $PATH variable is /bin;/sbin;/usr/sbin;/usr/bin. As mentioned in the other thread, for now, either appending paths to the $PATH variable or simply specifying full path to the additional components that you need access to is the most common solution to this issue.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from Tyler Eich in Run an app on a different Desktop
Yeah good point. I forgot about that. I just remembered that TotalSpaces did it and provides a lot of other options as well. Either way. Thanks Tyler

jdfwarrior got a reaction from 3point in clipboard history hotkey choices?
Command+Opt+\ is the default hotkey for actioning items selected in Finder. Unless you changed that hotkey, it more than likely isn't working because that hotkey is already assigned.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from Neilio in Alfred arbitrarily forgets shortcuts
Have you tried resettings Alfred's knowledge and tried it a second time to see if it would resolve itself? The option to clear his knowledge is under the Advanced tab in the Alfred Preferences

jdfwarrior got a reaction from dathin in Spotlight Comments on folder not showing up
This may have been an issue of the metadata needing to be updated and when you added the scope back, it updated. Unsure. Keep a watch on it and let us know if it happens again as this definitely shouldn't be happening and may just be something simple.

jdfwarrior reacted to tschoof in Newbie. Is there a manual for Alfred?
I don't just wanna pimp my blogpost on Alfred, so I'd say this episode of Mac Powerusers is a good start

jdfwarrior got a reaction from adamtheturtle in Subway workflow
I haz a gift
Download
I don't know a full list of all the potential status messages yet. I sent the guy who made the API an email requesting that list. When I get that, I'll update this workflow again. Until then, if there are messages I haven't accounted for yet, the icon will show as a question mark.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from tanepiper in Returning array values to Alfred with PHP
You can't return array values to Alfred. Alfred accepts feedback via XML. You could use something like my Workflows class (found here) to make adding objects as results a little easier. As for searching the array and showing only certain results, I would suggest something like this..(I've used it in several workflows now).
$data = array( 'Production Server 1' => 'http://www1.production' 'Production Server 2' => 'http://www2.production' 'Staging Server 1' => 'http://www1.staging' 'Staging Server 2' => 'http://www2.staging' ); $filter = "{query}"; foreach( $data as $name => $site ): if ( $filter && ( strpos( strtolower( $site ), strtolower( $site ) ) !== false || strpos( strtolower( $name ), strtolower( $name ) ) !== false ) ): $w->result( 'saved.site', $site, $name, $site, 'icon.png', 'yes', $name ); endif; endforeach; $w->toxml();
May want to check over that. I typed it all in the editor here very quickly with no syntax highlighting Using my workflows class that should take input from the user loop through your sites and only show the ones that match the input in the name or url, and then create feedback results of those items. Creating feedback items requires the use of a Script Filter, not just a keyword.
Check full XML feedback syntax here

jdfwarrior got a reaction from Velox in Can I automatically remove the forward slash when typing '~'
Alfred actually already does this. If I pop up Alfred, type '~', it shows the browser with '/Users/ferg/' populated, if I type a '/' next, it shows a second / in the path but still shows all the contents of the home folder and I can still select them and it just corrects itself afterward.

Spot on. Thank you sir.

jdfwarrior got a reaction from spuder in A Plea to Workflow Developers
It doesn't have to be something specific or follow a specific format, it just needs to be a string that can uniquely identify the workflow.
