justaguy 5 Report post Posted January 2, 2019 In the new Enpass (6.0.0) for Windows, search is no longer universal--I can't just search for a field or password. Now we have to manually select "Title", "Field", or "Passwords" before searching. Why has the useful functionality of universal search been downgraded? By the way, I have "Search in all items" checked in settings, but that doesn't seem to change anything. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hassan 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2019 +1. I think search should be universal by default. Or at least Title + fields + notes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinod Kumar 110 Report post Posted January 4, 2019 @Hassan, Fields search includes title and notes as well. Passwords are encrypted additionally inside database. So, searching will be slow if we include that in Fields search. Moreover, you hardly need to search a login by its password. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maxim 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) Problem seems to exist with the MacOS version also. If I try to search on part of a word (ie first 3 letters) not all items come up... this is for all content other than passwords. Before the big update it used to work. Makes it difficult when you have a large DB of content. Just to confirm I have "Search in all items" checked in settings also.

andlinwinuser 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2019 Hi @Vinod Kumar I think I have an issue with universal search. It seems to ignore email addresses containing a + sign. For example: myname+something(at)tld, which you can do with Gmail. However, the search doesn't find anything if I look for myname+something(at)tld even though the fields option is selected. Thanks!

EWMiller 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2019 I have this same complaint. Search should be everything. It's nice to have an option I suppose, but I would just like it to search everything; title, fields and definitely usernames. I believe this behavior (search everything by default) was present in Enpass 5. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EWMiller 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2019 Just to add to this, I don't need the ability to search passwords, but please set a default for all other fields, or allow the end user to make that functionality happen via a setting. Thank you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justaguy 5 Report post Posted January 10, 2019 Just to reiterate, I find it quite a downgrade that the new update doesn't let us search everything, and now we have to choose the type of search we want to do. I don't think anyone likes having their search limited like this. I really hope the Enpass devs reconsider this change. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinod Kumar 110 Report post Posted January 11, 2019 Hi @justaguy, Click on lens icon in search entry and select fields option. Enpass will now search in all fields, title and note. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kefa 1 Report post Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Thanks for this - working for me now . Glad I found this. I thinking the search dropdown options could be slightly clearer, perhaps something like: 'Titles only' and 'All fields except passwords'. Perhaps 'All fields except passwords' could be the default too! Edited January 11, 2019 by kefa 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or, just have an option in settings that brings back the old search. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kölle 4 Report post Posted January 16, 2019 I also think that the default search option should be to search in all fields except passwords and only passwords as a separate option. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
