Feature request: multiple archives
Hello,
For people who, like me, work on very different projects at the same time, it would be nice to be able to use different archives (this is already partly possible) and to switch easily from one to another.
Currently, it is possible to switch and then reopen the previous archive, but it is not straightforward. This is why I would suggest:
- a menu from which to choose the archive to use (like in File > Open recent...)
- the saved searches are associated to archives (currently, when switching archives, the list of search remains the same, but that makes no sense!)
- even better: possibility to open different archives simultaneously (one per tab)
- cherry on the pie: when the app is launched, re-open the tabs/archives as they were when the app was closed
What do you think?

Welcome to the forums. What are your areas of interest? How do you use The Archive?
Early on, this was my thinking, but I've come to see the advantages of a single archive. Sophisticated saved searches can separate projects when desired, but I get the advantages of all my ideas comingling.
As a beta tester, I'd like to see a smoother way to switch to a "test" environment with its own theme, saved searches, and archive. But I'd find no other use for this feature in my zettelkasten.
