Tasks which havent been opened in a recent time and have their “Done” relation checked are not showing up in the global search.
HOW TO REPRODUCE IT
Create a set of type task
Set filter “Done” - “is checked”
Try searching for them in the global search
THE EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
Showing the task
ADDITIONAL CONTEXT
This isn’t reproducable with newly created tasks. And when opening one of my older tasks and then searching for it, it also works.
Only tasks I haven’t opened in a while can’t be found.
Same for me. I did a fresh install of the latest version (0.34.3) on Ubuntu and at first search didn’t work at all (when I haven’t opened any objects). Once I opened specific objects, only those became searchable.
This is a major BUG from my point of view.
I’ve imported a large amount of notes from Logseq ~2 weeks ago, and now most of them are not displayed in my search results which makes Anytype unusable and at least very hard to work it since you have to manually go to that particular note and open it.
Later edit:
I see that there is another issues opened and it has been assigned to the dev team
That’s a different issue, but it could be related behind the hood. When you first open the search bar, you’re supposed to see your recently opened objects there, but that doesn’t work properly now.
I am trying to make use of the search function. Not sure if the search doesn’t work only on my computer, or if it’s the software issue for everybody. See the screenshot below.
I confirm this issue has been created with 0.34.3 version; I did a test before updating on my laptop because I discovered the issue on my desktop.
Please fix It; AT is not usable without search function.
I can’t seem to find a pattern as to when the Search function can find the objects and when it can not. The only thing that I’ve seen so far is that if you manually open an object, then it will show up in search regardless of the creation date of the object.
I have to say, I hope the team has a clear understanding of the task because it’s really annoying not being able to search for my objects.
Maybe if we had an option to trigger manual indexing of Anytype, it would be a short-term solution for this problem.
That’s awesome to hear! just to add some more information, maybe it would be helpful to the team: this indexing issue does not affect other areas. Let me give you an example: if I create a object relation which is of one my types of objects, for instance “humans” and I start typing in the relation box to find the person I’m looking for, it always find my query. Even the “case sensitive” bug is not an issue there.
