It would also be really helpful if this could search for all cards that someone is a member of. This could satisfy some use cases of #2055. |
I also think this is a "must have" feature to get wekan in production (for a company). |
Is there any update about this issue? |
No one has started coding search all boards feature yet. It would require someone to have time to read Wekan source code existing search feature, and add to it searching for other boards of user too. Code contributions as pull requests welcome. See Wekan GitHub wiki for Developer Docs and Directory Structure. |
If it is really important to have this soon, someone can pay 500 euro for my time to develop this feature: |
While I can't support the 500 € at this point unfortunately, would definitely be really keen to see this feature at some point, and if there was a BountySource (or similar, since I see you're moving away from that!) setup I'd happily chip in with others. |
Current payment methods are here: It works similarly, so if someone sends some part of that 500 € then it is added to Roadmap. |
Moved to here from #552 (comment) From @gregruthenbeck
Yes, I would think this
No, it can not be added relatively easily. Programming this requires many hours of work to get feature working correctly. Anyway, I hope to get this finished at this year. |
Someone asked at Wekan Community:
Maybe this could be related to this search instead, being some search option. |
@xet7 Is this still estimated to be 500 euro of development? |
In theory, yes, and that 500 euro has already been prepaid. In practice, it could be just enough, or require total 1000 euro of work. It could work fine, or slow down Wekan a lot. Usually it's just throwing a lot of features to Wekan to see could it even possibly work. |
Ah, that makes sense. I'm going to look into getting further sponsors. |
Search all boards functionality has been added, including the following functionality:
I have yet to implement:
After implementing the above search will have all the functionality that I intended. Of course, comments and feedback are welcome. |
Those new changes will be in next Wekan release, that will happen sometime today or tomorrow. I will fix one not-related Wekan bug before making new Wekan release. |
Not sure if you looked at the way I did the translatable search instructions using Markdown. Do you think this will be a problem for translators? |
No. First that I have tested and figured out Finnish translations, I will add info for translators to Transifex about how to translate. |
Can you make colors translated, with examples? For example, now when in English I search:
In Finnish I can currently search:
Colors are already translated like
At search instructions could be a list of labels with translated color names, where for example red labels have red background and same visible-enough (light or dard) foreground color like at labels at board:
That would be in Finnish:

@xet7 I have been thinking about your suggestion of having a list of the color like the label. I worked something up and added functionality so that clicking on the color adds it to the search. I did the same thing for list names. We could do something like this for all the different criteria but if the lists get big it will become unwieldy. What do you think, is this worth pursuing? Cod 8000 e: https://github.com/jrsupplee/wekan/tree/new-search |
Yes, this is great! I also do not remember color names etc, and what they are when translated to Finnish, so it's great to have visible list of all those search options. Please add PR. Thanks a lot! |
Is it already possible to search from attachment filenames? If not, is it possible for you to add that? |
What do you think, would it be possible for you to add feature |
Also, if you don't have time, please ignore my questions above. |
I have added some new operators (due date, created date, modified date). I don't think this would be difficult but I have not looked at attachments. |
Might be best to add this as a feature request. I don't have time to do this now, but I doubt it would be difficult. The time consuming part for me is the HTML (jade) and CSS to display things in a decent way. My Cards should be modified to look more like the Wekan theme. But it works so I am not motivated to spend the time tweaking the display. |
Ok, I'll add it as Feature Request, so someone interested in it can add it. |
The problem is with the German translation of the operators. They should be specified in lowercase but in German they have the first letter capitalized. I will submit a patch to account for this. Until then you can search with the abbreviated operators.
|
@jrsupplee I just clicked on the label, list and board tags you created, maybe the abbreviated letters can be the default behavior for this? Also thank you a lot for your work, you are doing very well. |
Fix for search operators with uppercase letters at #3470 |
I still see an issue: The direct link generated to the global search contains i18n operators but this is not accepted by Wekan. In the URL, only English operator names are accepted. |
I had trouble getting |
It looks like |
I18n operator names in query strings in URLs still do not work in v4.91. |
Could you try opening the inspection console for the page and then running the searches again. |
I don’t understand what you need me to do. You can see the problem here: https://op.its.kfa-juelich.de:8843/global-search?q=Liste%3AA. Login/password is test/12345. |
I can ping the server op.its.kfa-juelich.de but Wekan will not open. |
Sorry, drop the port number. Login as test/12345 at https://op.its.kfa-juelich.de/, then open https://op.its.kfa-juelich.de/global-search?q=Liste%3AA. |
There is an issue that the Is it possible that this code from
|
Yes, Is it possible for you to try changing
And then trying does translation syntax mentioned at https://atmospherejs.com/ostrio/i18n work? Alternatively, there could be other i18n packages that could maybe work: https://atmospherejs.com/?q=i18n |
Sounds like a lot of work and the documentation for I tried removing the
What do you think, could this solve the issue? |
Please add pull request. Thanks! |
Problem description:
This way you could:
It's very useful for workflows where users move stories between boards.
