Scott (ID: 000000077ad7612b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/09/2023 This extension works very well, much more useful that I would have thought. The only downside is actually an issue with Joplin, where searches are ordered by an algorithm that ends up putting them in a seemingly random order of results that just about always puts what I am looking for way down the list. If that issue was addressed, then this extension would be able to also list the results in a more usable order, like chronological, for example. Otherwise, this extension is great and does exactly what it is supposed to do.
