Omnisearch

Omnisearch is a powerful search engine for your entire vault. Search and find notes based on content, not just titles. Activate it with CTRL + SHIFT + O when the quick switcher (CTRL + O) isn’t enough.

Features

Section titled “Features”
  • Content-based search using the BM25 ranking algorithm, weighting filenames, headings, and content.
  • Advanced syntax: quoted phrases ("exact match"), exclusions (-word), and file type filters (.md, .pdf).
  • In-file search mode to search within the current note.
  • Insert links directly from search results.
  • Multi-format support for PDFs, images, and Office documents (requires Text Extractor plugin).

Commands

Section titled “Commands”
  • Open Omnisearch: Open the search modal. Activate with CTRL + SHIFT + O.
  • Toggle in-file / vault search: Switch between searching the vault or the current note.
  • Insert link from search result: Insert a [[link]] from results.
