:ZettelSearch and :NV search different things #129

Open folofjc opened 2 years ago

folofjc commented 2 years ago

I have multiple wikis. Only one of them is really a zettelkasten, but I like to use some of the features of vim-zettel in the others. I have let g:nv_search_paths = to the parent directory that contains the directories of each of my wikis. When I do :NV and search, it searches through all the wikis (which is what I want).

However, when I try to link to a file using [[ or :ZettelSearch, it only searches the current directory.

There is a comment in the doc here that looks like this was intentional (however, the issue that it is linked to appears to be something else).

If it is desired that :NV and :ZettelSearch do two different things, that is fine. But how can I insert a link using g:nv_search_paths instead of the current directory?

I did a test. I used :NV to search for a file in another wiki, then I yanked it from Notational-FZF. Then I pasted it into my wiki, and tried to do gZ on it. It made it a link, however it assumed that it was in the current directory, so the link did not work.

So this will not work as a workaround.
