Hello everyone, I'm new to HFS and I have a little problem...

I want to search in the comments with the default HFS search. Is it possible?

I want to write tags in the comments (ex.: tag1, tag2), so I can find the files much more faster.

Like if I want to search for "tag1", it will list all the files with "tag1" in it...

Thanks in advance!

Hi! and welcome... :)

I exactly don't know if the latest version has this function, but a couple of years ago, HFS didn't have this feature. See a similar question, HERE.

Wait for the answer of Rejetto or another member, just to be sure...

if i recal correctly, no, hfs alone still doesn't have this, but a template did.

It looks like your wanting tags and tag search, i recal a template having that...

i thought it was thunderchicken of glory....
Files I have snagged and share can be found on my google drive:

You can download the template Thunderchicken of Glory v4.0.3, HERE.
(This doesn't mean this template has that feature, just try it)

No tag search in this tempelate, sadly :(

i confirm that feature is not available.
I guess you don't want it just in the same folder, as in that case you would just use the browser 'search' for text in the page.
Anway, it's not impossible to be programmed inside the template itself, but surely it's not easy.

I am looking to do this too and thought I'd share what I came up with, in case anyone else is still looking for a solution. It's not pretty, but it's simple and gets the job done. To show up in the search results, I created a virtual "Tag" folder and created null files (no extension) for the tags, like "folder name - tag1, tag2, tag3". Then I created the "hfs.comments.txt" in the Tag folder, where you can add a link to the "tagged" folder, like:
Code: [Select]
folder name - tag1, tag2, tag3=<a href="/link/to/folder/" target="_blank">Open Folder</a>
If you could replace the null file link with the folder link, then you wouldn't need the "Open Folder" comment link, but I don't know a way to do that.
