Hello,
I can only get this macro to work for one tag (to do) it will not work for any other tags.
Is this the intent? Have I misunderstood? I thought would gather a list for any tag?
Please and thank you

Ken - 2020-10-14

Would be nice if the search could be isolated to the section group. Rather than have multiple notebooks I use section groups. The Current Section filter searches all the section groups and is not helpful

Hi Omer,

this macro keeps bringing tags already checked (completed) when you select the option to only bring tag that are unchecked.

IMHO, that has to be fixed!! the bug has been live for a long time now.

happy to provide more info offline as you need.

thank you!

Patricio.

Pat: Just published an update to fix that. Please download the updated version and try again.

Pat - 2020-08-12

Great idea.

I have a problem: in the search results, the path where the tag is located is wrong. The results are correct, but the path (breadcrumb) is incorrect.

Kent Compton - 2020-07-02

Thank you for the macro. It's extremely useful. Is it possible to add Current Page to the scope? I work around this today by moving the page to it's own section, but that's less than ideal.

McPato777: Please collect macro logs. See https://getonetastic.com/how-to/report-macro-issues

McPato777 - 2019-03-18

Omer,

This macro 'Tag Summary for Specific Tag' keeps bringing checked tags even when the option to only retrieve unchecked tags is selected.

I think I saw on one of your logs that the bug was fixed but it hasn't been at least in my end.

let me know if you need additional information since it would be awesome if it gets fixed.

thanks in advance!

Is it possible to include the option to have a tag summary for a Page where it inserts the summary on the page it is summarising?

Jay - 2019-01-10

It would be great if we had the ability to select which Notebook, section group, section, and pages we wanted the summary to look through. I want to compile 2 notebooks worth of TO-DO tags but there isn't a great way to do it now. I either run it by all of the notebooks (which typically causes it to crash) or I run them by the individual sections groups and then copy and paste from each group into one master page. Not sure how feasible that is.

LOOregano2 - 2018-08-13

I am running this macro, but it is showing both checked and non-checked items. I do not know why. All items are on a single OneNote page, in one notebook. I don't know what other info would be pertinent, so please ask if I can provide anything else to help you fix this macro.
Thanks, Lawrence

asandoval - 2018-06-13

When I run this macro I only get a list of all meeting attendees and not the list of the To Do's tag which is what the macro is intended to do, am I doing something wrong?

Omer Atay - 2017-12-17

Dubamot: Updated this macro to skip deleted pages and display Section names when sorting by Page

Dubamot - 2017-11-14

Can it filter out tags from deleted pages?
Also - can it show section names as well as page names?
The right combination of this macro and your Tag Summary with Page Names would be awesome - that other filters out deleted pages and shows section names, but doesn't filter out checked tags and doesn't have the multiple tag search this one has.
Frustratingly close to very useful!

JasonNote - 2017-08-23

Thank you Omer, this is great! I appreciate your work on this!

evl - 2017-08-02

I get: " the xml is invalid"

David Graves - 2017-06-13

I have loaded Tag Summary for Specific Tag (and Onetastic Pro). I called the macro and never got the screen shot above. Therefore, I do not have any way to specific either the tags or the scope of the analysis. (Win 7 OneNote 2013)

Sparks In Texas - 2017-06-10

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Omer Atay - 2017-05-24

Sparks In Texas/Cal: This macro is now updated with an option to find paragraphs that have at least one of the specified tags (as opposed to having all of the specified tags at the same time)

Sparks In Texas - 2017-05-15

Would be nice if we could choose "Or" instead of "And" for the tags. I'd like to be able to search for two different tags

Omer Atay - 2017-04-07

Mark: There is no way to add new tag icons in OneNote.

Mark - 2017-04-07

Would you consider adding a beetle or some other bug as an icon to categorize "bugs" in onenote?

Cal - 2017-03-14

Omer,
Thanks for the quick reply. I understand how it works now. Thanks!

Omer Atay - 2017-03-13

Cal: The macro finds paragraphs that have both of the tags you enter. So it will find a paragraph that has To Do and Important tags both at the same time. It won't find paragraphs that have only To Do or only Important tags. I can see why you may want that but that just isn't what this macro does.

Cal - 2017-03-13

Multiple tags isn't working for me. If I enter To Do and Important, the new page gets created but it is empty. If I enter just a single tag, either To Do or Important, it works as it should.

Omer Atay - 2017-02-06

Ryan Archey: Where are the duplicates coming from?

Ryan Archey - 2017-02-06

It would be really handy if you could exclude duplicate tags to roll up a summary of tags each day without showing duplicates, triplicates and so on. Great work on what is here already.

Thank You,

Ryan

Omer Atay - 2017-01-14

Cecil: This macro never displayed the icon associated with the tag in the generated list. Since the generated list is for a specific selected tag, all the items would have the same tag anyways.

Cecil - 2017-01-12

I may be imagining it, but it seems the version prior to Dec 2016 of this macro showed the icon associated with the tag when the list was generated.

Did I just have too much wine over the Xmas holidays? :-)

Bernard Vander Beken - 2017-01-04

Great work, Omer!

Some suggestions:
- provide option to only list pages (instead of page + section)
- provide option to create one subpage per Tag
- let user choose among configured tags

Omer Atay - 2016-10-27

This macro is updated with two new options: Sort by containing page vs. tag creation date, and filter by all, checked or unchecked tags only. The results are grouped under page or tag creation date based on sort by value.

bmac - 2016-07-04

This macro would be even more useful if the user could choose only uncompleted or completed (to do) tags.

Cindy - 2016-04-04

Please a summary page by tags with unchecked to dos!!! Please!!

Nestor - 2016-03-29

Could you create a macro that searches for specific open (Unchecked) tags and displays them on a page. The name of the item is linked to the page where it lives. If you update (Check the item) as completed on the report page, it also permanently reflects on the page where the item lives.

Steve Palmo - 2016-03-18

How do you change the drop-down to include any desired tags ?

Tommi - 2016-02-02

Vote for Paul's wish.
<clip>
Hi Omer, certainly a good feature, but there is always room for improvement: could you add the possibility to display only the tags that are completed or that are not completed (assuming you have a tag where that is relevant)

Ralph - 2015-10-01

Hi Guys,
This macro really helped me a lot but I wanted to put some space after each of the tags. Anyone has any ideas? I would appreciate the help!

Omer,

Thank you for making this program.

Paul - 2015-09-08

Hi Omer, certainly a good feature, but there is always room for improvement: could you add the possibility to display only the tags that are completed or that are not completed (assuming you have a tag where that is relevant)

jason404 - 2015-07-30

I have some custom tags (projects). How could I just them to appear in this macro?

Also, do custom tags sync to the cloud? I seem to have some tags that I think I created a couple of years ago, but on another computer. I have no idea how they got there.

bh - 2015-06-28

Thanks, Omer. I did figure that out and I posted as such to not bother you, but I see the post is not here.

Thanks for creating this Onetastic--it is pretty cool and sure fills in the missing features!

Omer Atay - 2015-06-28

bh: Edit Macros > choose this macro. Then click Delete Macro.

bh - 2015-06-27

How do I remove this macro from the ribbon? It is greyed out in Customize the Ribbon.

AveSharia - 2015-06-15

Really cool that this was possible; unfortunately, it's not usable for me. Having to add custom tags manually was okay, but the summary page it generates does not copy tagged images (the way the built-in summary page does) and takes quite a long time.

For now I will continue generating the native summary pages and deleting the tag summaries I don't want.

SD - 2015-05-29

Omer,
First thank you for a lot of great macros, and useful. One request for Todo's, it would be great to be able to have a page of Todo's and then after checking them complete, have them moved to a subpage of all completed todo's with complete date...maybe subpage would have many paragraphs dated with their completed todos...this keeps your todo page cleaner.

YU, Wenbo - 2015-05-27

Hi, I very likne your works. They are great.

I am wondering is it possible to combine TOC with tag summary for spec tag? Then, the output would be

<SectionName>
<PageName>
<tag details>

On this output, it is much easier to know which tag is under with section.

brianlemon - 2015-04-08

How can this be changed to search only a specific page and not an entire section?

Rolfgp - 2015-04-06

Is there a limit on the number of customized tags you can add to this macro?

KristinH - 2015-03-28

Thank you Travis, your instructions for adding custom tags worked perfectly! :-D

szako - 2015-01-23

Hi!

Thanks for the effort, but I cannot choose custom tags. No use for me then :(

Alex - 2015-01-18

Looks like a great macro. Unfortunately, I get the message "The XML is invalid"...

Gary - 2014-12-07

This was a great idea for a macro. Implementation had the same results for me as for Mike Josephson. The search process (within a single notebook) took so long that I gave up and cancelled the operation.

John Rostozki - 2014-10-30

I takes my words back, I managed, everything works, thx again.

John Rostozki - 2014-10-30

It is a great addin and one needed for me, but from the above explanations I didn't understand how to edit the macro to add my own custom tags. I'll be very gratefull for other details. thanks.

Omer Atay - 2014-10-22

Mike Josephson: This is expected if you have a lot of pages under the scope you are searching. If you are searching under All Notebooks and you have hundreds of pages, the macro needs to read every single page, process them(look for tags) check if those tags matches what you requested for and generate the output page. Reading every single page takes time if you have lots of pages.

Mike Josephson - 2014-10-22

I am decidedly a OneNote advocate. In my opinion this is the largest gap in OneNote. IE, the ability to search for a specific tag. I was excited to see this macro being offered up. I successfully edited the macro to include my custom tags. The challenge is that upon launching the search I get a Running Maco dialog box which loops from "Reading page contents" to "Processing page contents" for literally 10 minutes before publishing the results. I tried two different searches with approximately the same results.

Travis - 2014-10-21

Adding Custom Tags to Dropdown Menu:
Click: Edit Macros; Tag Summary for Specific Tag; Export
Use CTRL+A, CTRL+C to copy all
Click Import
Use CTRL+V to paste
Type the titles of your custom tags into the FIFTH LINE. Like so: <Prompt type="dropdown" initialValue="[DEFAULT CUSTOM TAG HERE!]" values="[OTHER TAGS HERE!];To Do;Important;Question;Remember for later;Definition;Highlight;Contact;Address;Phone number">Choose tag name</Prompt>

It doesn't matter if you have spaces in the titles. Don't use spaces between titles.
Modified tag titles are not retroactive, so if you tagged something "Important" and then renamed it "Important and Urgent", you'll get an error when running the macro intending to compile "Important and Urgent" tags.
If, after setting this up, you modify tag titles, you'll have to come back and repeat this process.

werpnst8 - 2014-10-15

I'm new to macros in OneNote, so please forgive the beginner question. Can you tell me how to modify the macro to include my custom tags please? Thank you.

Omer Atay - 2014-03-28

shnk, see my other reply below. You can edit the macro to add your custom tags. The list of custom tags isn\'t available to add-ins, so Onetastic can\'t read the list and display there. You need to manually add it to the list by editing the macro.

shnk - 2014-03-26

it supports only few predefined tags, does not support user defined tags. it\'s biggest limitation.

Omer Atay - 2014-02-07

Ricardo, you can edit the macro and change the dropdown choices to include your custom tags.

Ricardo - 2014-02-07

Can this be extended to include custom tags? ie more than the default OneNote tags.
