Stackedit: Feature Request: Search content across multiple documents

[byunicorn]

Hi,
I have used stackedit to do daily record for a while and my records are named with date. So when I want to search something, it's a little difficult to recall in which file it is.
I wonder if StackEdit can provide the feature to search content in all documents or the documents under the same directory.
I'd really appreciate this feature.

Thanks

I wrote a UserCustom extension to do that: https://github.com/benweet/stackedit/wiki/UserCustom.globalSearch

_{It doesn't have the ability to search in specific folders, though...}

If this gets implementated, I think it useful to have search queries performed using URL variables. This would allow easy searches from browser URL/location bars.

Hi - It looks like the link to the extension is not working. Does the extension still exist, or is there another preferred way to be able to search content? I'm trying to settle on a simple Wiki for storing information, and StackEdit might able to act as that to some degree, but without search it will get hard to find all of the information I'm storing. :)

Is this implemented yet..?? Or ever going to..?

1347 seems to be a duplicate of this.

1347 seems to be a duplicate of this.

Not necessarily since #1347 mentions titles or contents. Content search would be awesome, similar to how trello offers searching through card descriptions, however title search on its own would be fantastic.

it's really necessary once it's getting big with the content. I use SE as KM tool, now sticking to it but falling into the dilemma of searching history. Is it possible to use Google's search capabilities if it's using Google Drive as storage?

Have the sample suggestion here.
It will be a great help if we can search globally, as we usually use SE to take note.
