Search tags using previous tag search

Eddy

Hi all,

I wonder if it's possible to search for a tag and if you get a lot of results, you can search in these results using another tag narrowing down the possibilities.

I Tried AND but that didn't give the expected results.

Is this possible or would it be a good suggestion for the forum. At this stage there aren't that many topics, but as those will grow, we could use more advanced search possibilities.

Cheers

IMHO, search inside search results would be a great feature.
So from my opinion, you should file a bug report / suggestion.

Hi Gerolf,

I made the suggestion in bugreports :
http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTWEBSITE-247

If you wish you can vote for it!

EDIT : I hope Marius likes it too ;)

giesbert

surely, I voted.
We have to make him like it :-)

I have just voted too! It is a very reasonable suggestion :)

Absolutely, version 2 of the Tag feature is under development right now, it will support "AND, OR, NOT" logic. And a few other cool things, like aliases and tag monitoring/following.

See QTWEBSITE-135

But search in search result is more then AND/OR etc

It could be a search via tags whose results are then searched by text or vice versa

Alright, that's not on the table for now. But the original request will be fulfilled with AND searches:

bq. I wonder if it’s possible to search for a tag and if you get a lot of results, you can search in these results using another tag narrowing down the possibilities.

So, shall I write a second suggestion? :-)

Thanks!

Solid ideas! Got my vote, too!

Eddy

I just voted for Gerolf's idea. But it's strange to see nobody else did yet. Maybe it's better to split this up so that the right idea is voted for and not the original one.

Eddy, it was friday night, I'm not sure a lot of people were here :)

Eddy

Hi Denis,

I know. it only seems strange to me that people tell us in the forum they voted, but the counter was still 0.
Could be only they voted for the first suggestion, which is not as elaborated as Gerolf's.

Cheers

PS : i think we are in another timezone. It's 11:46 am here.

Gerolf's issue is now voted 3 times, not 0.

giesbert

Let's wait and see, It the trolls think, it is helpfull, it could also go in with 0 votes :-)

Eddy

2 mad scientists voted for it so they must listen! ;)

giesbert

Who is the second one? Denis and ?
Not me, I can't vote, I created it :-)
