Search box does not search notes
When I perform a keyword search from the main search box, it does not seem to search the notes, just the task titles. Please include the notes boxes in the search function. Thank you!
The filtering of notes has been implemented on https://beta.checkvist.com
You can try it now, before release, and let us know if you notice any oddities.

I just tried this out. Notes are included in the global search.
However, even with "Show all notes" enabled, list filtering does not include notes. That's okay, I'd rather use the global search than have to expand all my notes before filtering.

Thanks for the fix, notes are now searchable in the global search and also in live filtering when "Show all notes" is checked. Just what we needed.

@Ricardo, global search works after ~10minutes delay after the change. So if you just added the note, the global search won't work immediately.

Indeed it's easy enough to search inside a list, just expand the notes and we can use the browser find function and problem solved.
Of course, it would be delicious if when searching, Checkvist would somehow show a discrete but useful "show notes" _only if the search was actually spotting any containing the search_.
But such candy feature it's certainly not a priority if there are workarounds.
That said, Kir, I just tried it and the workaround you mentioned didn't work for me.

Thank you so much for your kind response. I will use the global cross-list search for now, and I look forward to seeing the option in the future. Thank you again!

Thanks for the request.
Actually, some of our user find it useful that search works across tasks only, not notes. So, search through notes should be an option, for instance, when all notes are expanded on the screen.As a workaround, you can use global cross-list search to search data in the notes as well.
