politicus Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Love the new search in Preferences. But would love to be able to search Alfred Preferences from Alfred search bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 @politicus You can do this with the built in ? keyword, e.g. Show Alfred and type: ?features I'll add a note to make this more obvious Cheers, Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
politicus Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 When I type "?features" in Alfred Search Bar and hit enter Alfred Preferences is launched. But I can't search any query as "Features" disappears as I type an argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 @politicus They keyword is ?... Did Alfred's preferences launch to the features tab when you typed ?features How about if you type ?workflows, or ?web search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
politicus Posted June 22, 2019 Author Share Posted June 22, 2019 All is working like a charm. One more feature I will use every day ! Any other hidden gems ? 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
politicus Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Are web searches searchable. Doesn't look like they are. 😔 Would be super useful when want to check the keyword of one web search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 @politicus they are searchable by keyword, but this is something which will likely change in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
politicus Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Ok. Got it. (I tried but didn't find a way to search by keyword this morning because I had the great idea to create a workflow with a ? as a keyword... Stupid me.) In order no other user waste his time, the right way to search Web searches by keyword is "?NameOfTheKeyword". No space needed between ? and the keyword.
