Quick Search using Workflowy

Want to learn how to create a quick link for searching content in Workflowy? This is how I make it happen in my instances of the tool.

Using Workflowy to capture, process, and report information is an excellent start to simplifying your productivity, but adding techniques such as embedded searches can elevate your game to the next level.

Love the video, appreciate you taking the time to share. I've already made the quick reference change in my workflow and am loving it.

Nice. I love how powerful the search is! I think most people building databases in Notion really only need this WF tags/search to do 90% of what they're trying to do in Notion.

1:48 You actually CAN edit the template by clicking on the bullet out next to the template button. 👏 It will allow you to zoom into the template and make your changes (it won't change any existing copies, just the next time you press the button). I update my morning routine template all the time this way. But your method works too, WF is so flexible!

Also for dates, you can type "Today" and it will auto-fill. It even works for things like "in two weeks" or "now". 🤩

Me encantó el video porque es simple, claro y profundo en el mensaje. Soy usuario de WF desde hace más de 2 años y siempre es bueno ver como otros usuarios lo utilizan. Genial. Muchas gracias

The Quick Search Hack with adding links is a game changer .... particular now with the nested search option and since the starred seach option build into WF is pretty basic and quickly gets cluttered... Thank Allot 🙏
