Since upgrading to Alfred 4, "Eject All" now tries (and fails) to also eject the boot disk, as well as other hidden disks, whose names I don't recall at the moment. Anyone else noticing this issue?

There’s no option for that right now. Which video player would you like as the default, and does it support playing URLs directly?

I was partly curious how it decides which app to open. It opened VLC, and then once I had installed IINA, it opened that instead. IINA seems like the better option to me, but I suppose setting a default and/or choosing a player in the action would appeal to people.

This is great, Vitor! How can I set up a default video player?

Would you mind putting this on GitHub?

Agreed, @dfay I follow your github to keep aware of updates to your very helpful workflows.

Great workflow, thank you! How can I stop it from adding an "alfred" tag by default?

Edit: Figured it out. In the workflow's files, change line 74 of pocket_save.py from: 

   tags = ['alfred']

to

   tags = ['']

I updated my workflow from 2016, which notifies you beforehand whether DND is enabled or not, to use the defaults write method. It works in Mojave now, except that the notification center icon does not update. Working on finding a solution to that.

I'm sure it has been! Can't even imagine!

Hi, I just configured your complex and amazing workflow. I wonder if it's possible to simply call up a map of an address, rather than always have to look up directions from one location to another?

I see that I can use the "maps" keyword to look up a map of an address without needing directions between two locations. I also see that the "maps" keyword may be deprecated. I'd like to see the functionality of a non-direction map be kept in the future!

That works! Beautiful! Thank you

Is it the Safari installation that comes with the OS? Or is it a Tech Preview (a separate installation)?
If possible, what's the bundle ID of Safari on your machine?

Yes, it's the one that comes with the OS. Bundle ID is 12603.1.29

I'm using 10.12.4 beta and Safari 10.1

No Safari windows or tabs are being shown in the window switcher either.

This is great, thank you! I've been hoping for someone to develop a window switcher.

For the Safari tabs script filter, though, I get the default searches in Alfred, but no Safari tabs (with Safari open and multiple tabs).

Thanks for this!

I needed a symlink creation workflow that would place (renamed) symlinks in the same folder as the file being symlinked. I used the shell script from this article. Links are renamed to "<filename> link", and if that already exists, "<filename> link 1" etc.

Suggestions welcome. It might be useful to include a choice as to whether to send symlinks to the Desktop or another destination instead. MorseCode's workflow sends links to Desktop, but offers no other choice.

Here it is, on my github

nice, thanks!

Can you add Macmini7,1 please?

Anyone know of a way to make this filter by name as you type?

Check that Alfred has been enabled in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility.

This stopped working for me. Got it working again by replacing all instances of 

 tell menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2

 in the scripts to 

 tell menu bar item 1 of menu bar 1

Just a heads up Carlos, when you renamed the topic, you forgot the "P" in Pinboard

Perhaps depends on which dictionaries you have activated in Dictionary.app, and maybe also which order they're in?

That was it. I have Agile Tortoise's Terminology dictionary installed. Its results are missing a space.

Very strange.

I just noticed that the built-in dictionary workflow seems to be missing a space between the article of speech portion and the definition. Don't know if this is since version 3 or not.

Also, my version has a 3 second delay when turning Do Not Disturb ON, to allow for time to view the notification (otherwise, without the delay, there would be no notification, because Do Not Disturb would be on!). You can remove that delay in the script. You just wouldn't see a notification then.

liatmgat. you could also replace the script in the two "run script" sections (they're identical to each other except for one line: "delay 3") in my workflow with the script you prefer above.
