Is there a way to search using regex and date functions (such as "dc:thisyear")?
For example, I would like to search for all files starting with the characters XYZ which were created this year.
(1) When I enable regex, Everything sees any date function part in the search bar as part of the regex expression.
(2) When I disable regex then I don't have a way of searching characters at the beginning of the file name.
Regex with date functions
Re: Regex with date functions
Search functions will not work when regex is enabled from the Search menu.
You can use search functions and regex at the same time with the regex: modifier, for example to find files modified this year, and files starting with XYZ, search for:
dm:thisyear regex:^XYZ
Note: Please make sure regex is disabled from the Search menu.
Note: Please make sure you escape spaces and | with double quotes when using the regex: modifier.
