Creating it as two script filters though makes it show as two items if the user hasn't typed a space yet though correct? If they have only typed '#' then it shows two seemingly identical pieces? Granted, the other would disappear as soon as you pressed space but still.. He could easily just add an if statement to check and see IF a value was passed to the function and if not, display the color picker, otherwise, convert the color passed. Unless I'm misunderstanding something... ?

If I'm understanding correctly, yes it COULD be done.
 
Using a keyword input, make that run execute a "Run AppleScript" action that would: tell application "Alfred 2" to search "<enter your path here>".
That would kick Alfred back into browse mode of that folder. From there you could use the file/folder actions to open, reveal in Finder, etc.
 
Does that makes sense?

Well done sir. 'Color' me impressed. I intended to  convert this one and make it essentially EXACTLY like this. You read my mind. Good work

Formerly called Favorite Folders, now allows you to set any file, folder, or application as a favorite.
 
A user requested this under the help and questions forum and i really liked the idea of it. I threw it together really quick for them but thought I would share with you guys as well. Not sure if something like this has been made already or not but, here is my rendition of it.
 

 
The idea is to have a list of items that you access often, saved in a list and easily accessible. Results are actionable, can be opened by pressing Enter, browsed in Alfred by pressing Cmd+Enter, or removed from the Favorites List with Ctrl+Enter.

I use Opt+<num> to do several of mine. So you could do..
 
Opt+1 = Sublime
Opt+2 = Postbox
Opt+3 = Chrome
Opt+4 = Terminal

So, I previously made a post about kind of a hacked way to do this and then was talking to Adam Lau (@helloleo) about it on Twitter and came to a realization. I can do this a lot easier! Removed the hacked way of doing it. Popped out a workflow, and here ya go!

Btw, I love this idea. Don't know why I haven't thought about making this already as there are several folders I manually navigate to often. Here it is

Find a folder in search results or in the file nav, there should be a result action for folders only labeled "Add to Favorites". Select it and the folder will be added to your favorites list.
Use the 'favs' keyword to see the list of favs. Pressing Enter will open the fav in Finder. Cmd+Enter will browse that folder in Alfred. Ctrl+Enter will delete it from the favs list.
 
Btw, the fav items are marked as a file item so you can still action them too

So, it took me a little longer than anticipated because I ran into an issue. I swapped to getting the result as json instead of parsing HTML and so, when you request multiple items (i.e. 2 paragraphs) the line breaks between them was messing up the json.

Lipsum keyword allows you to select what it is that you want, then just enter the amount, or, there are defaults
 
Usage:
lipsum - Grabs the selected type with a default amount
lipsum 3 - Grabs 3 of the selected item

Just as the name implies, this workflow allows you to get search suggestions from Amazon.com. Actioning an item will open a search on Amazon for the suggested query.

Jacob,
New to PHP?  Ok so here's what I found. The workflow that you linked to works correctly, you just got a little confused in a few places. In the "Run Script" action where you are getting the IP address and trying to post the notification, if you look at the top of the window, there is an option to select the language of the script that you will be running. Yours was set to /bin/bash. That's bash scripting which is just scripting from the terminal. It appears that you tried to use the PHP sleep command in a bash script. Since the syntax you tried to use is from a different language, and the syntax was off, its failing to execute that part and just skipping straight to the notification. The proper was to pause/sleep in a bash script is just "sleep 5" where 5 can be changed to however many number of seconds it is that you wish to pause. So by changing the code to this:
sleep 5 IP=$(curl --silent http://icanhazip.com) echo $IP | pbcopy echo $IP  
The sleep command works normally and doesn't display until 5 seconds later.

Well, I finally joined ADN yesterday so I may make one soon. I need to finish AlfredTweet first though.

Most of these items are available in Alfred 2.
 
Browse:
For your example of system preferences, you could make a workflow that would allow you to enter a keyword and search just System Preferences. You could also create a workflow that was a single keyword that would initiate a file navigation for the System Preferences. For calendar, nothing has been created to provide this functionality yet, but I'm sure it could.
 
Default Search Engine:
Still available in Alfred 2. The preferences have been moved around some but its still there. Go to Preferences->Features->Default Results. Toward the bottom, there is a button to set up the fallback searches. You can select from any of the ones built int to Alfred or, with workflows, you could create your own to set as fallback searches.
 
Browser History/Bookmarks:
This is also built into Alfred, just not turned on by default. Go to Preferences->Features->Default Results and you can turn on the ability to search Safari Bookmarks. A workflow is already available in the Share Workflows area to allow you to search Safari History. I've also made one that allows you to search Chrome Bookmarks. Workflows could probably be made to support other browsers as well. Supporting every browser is a little different because they all store this data differently.
 
Mini Player:
You can scroll through a list of tracks once an artist, playlist, or album is selected. Considering the size of most peoples music libraries, providing a huge list of tracks only would be excessive and a pain to use. You can also search for any track in the mini player just by typing.

I originally posted these on my Tumblr but I've since noticed a few issues with it so I fixed a few things and wanted to post it here so people could comment or report issues.

Slow your roll guys Once v2 is out we may look into setting up some kind of repo. Right now, getting things feature complete and working out bugs are the biggest issue at hand.
 
Tom Hunt's repo was definitely an awesome idea but popularity of Alfred and its workflows and extensions should always be kept in mind when planning something for Alfred. I learned that the hard way with my original v1 Wolfram extension. Wolfram limits requests to 2000 per day. My original thought was, "that should be plenty!". My API key got killed a few days later, averaging 9-10k requests a day. Oops And that was back when it only fired at the end when the extension was executed... not at every keystroke like it does now with Workflows. Alfred v2 obviously isn't even available to everyone yet so imagine how much traffic would be hitting a server if you put up a workflow that searches an API and returns data, on every keystroke, when Alfred v2 is in full swing and everyone has it. Simple, cheap web hosting services aren't going to cut it.

I have an idea of how to accomplish this... let me poke around at it a bit, hopefully tonight, and I'll try to post something back. If you don't hear back from me in the next day or so, bump this thread again. I've been extremely busy and an liable to get busy and forget

The 'Shutdown' keyword can do this

I'm not sure what exactly it is that you are looking to do but as Jonas suggested, you can pop up Alfred using Cmd+Space (or whatever your hotkey of choice is), then press Cmd+, will open the preferences window. You can also pop up Alfred and type 'preferences' and 'Show Alfred Preferences' should be one of your actionable results. Or, finally, if you meant from a script:
tell application "Alfred 2" activate tell application "System Events" to keystroke "," using {command down} end tell  
That would activate Alfred and send the Cmd+, keystroke for you and show the preferences.

Updated 3/18:
NOTE: Set your location again so a default weather unit gets set initially, then change it.
Removed saving to the Workflow Data folder and actually save IN the workflow folder now. Should fix issue a few users are seeing and also allows syncing weather location.
