[Bug Report] Multiple tabs and windows triggered by Saved Search hotkey
I have a hot key associated with the #proofing Saved Search. After the last update the hotkey now triggers the saved search in all tabs and all the multiple windows that are open rather than just the one with the focus. I usually operate in the two-window mode. I tried changing the hotkey but no joy. -

Saint Augustine instructs Francesco Petrarch on the ZKM

Re: [Plugin] ZK Stats in a table by month
The plugin examines the files in the directory and examines the string of 12 digits. It then breaks down the string into year, month, and day, grouping on the months. Here is the code that breaks down the string. It sounds like the script is running into file names with unusual UUIDs. // Function to extract and count dates… -
Re: [Plugin] ZK Stats in a table by month
Thanks. It worked fine, but some figures are strange, so I have a few questions: What is counted in the monthly breakdown? The Total Number of Notes in Zettelkasten corresponds to the number of markdown files (I find 5163 in Finder and the plugin indicates 5165, so the difference is only 2) but the total of the figures in…
