How to move search result notes at once?

[hunorbatori]

Hi!

I'm migrating from Google Keep to Trilium and I successfully imported all my notes but I struggle with organizing them.
So I have many labels in Keep to differentiate between topics and as these labels appear as text in trilium I can easily search for them one by one but I don't know how to move all the search results under a folder at the same time.

I'm aware that there are actions on the search page and I can add labels for example but I would like to use folders to organize my topics instead of labels. Can I do that somehow? The best solution I found is to move the notes one by one into the desired folder but I have several hundreds of notes imported so I would shortcut it if possible.

Thanks!

Hi, for that I would use the tree panel:

Expand the search note which contains the list of search results, you can select all the notes in the search note by CTRL-A or select individually by holding shift and either clicking or moving with cursor keys. Then copy into clipboard with CTRL-C and paste into target parent note with CTRL-V.

Note however that this does not move the notes, it clones them. You can delete the original location/clone later ...
