Search filters

Use tag filters and tag presence filters to narrow WebCull search results.

Example tag:work github Only bookmarks tagged work are searched for github.

Limit results to specific tags

Use tag: or tags: followed by one tag name, or a comma-delimited list of tag names. The tag part becomes a hard filter. Text after a space stays part of the normal search.

tag:work github
Requires the work tag and searches normally for github.
tags:work,urgent github
Requires both work and urgent, then searches for github.
tag:none
Searches for a real tag named none.

Find tagged or untagged bookmarks

Use tag presence operators when you need to find bookmarks based on whether they have any tags. These do not conflict with real tag names.

no:tags github
Searches for github, but only among bookmarks with no tags.
has:tags github
Searches for github, but only among bookmarks that have at least one tag.
no:tag
Shows untagged bookmarks without adding any normal search terms.

Filters narrow, words search

Filters can appear before normal search words. A space ends the value for tag: and tags:, unless the tag list continues with commas.

tags:work,research browser sync

This requires bookmarks with the tags work and research, then searches the remaining bookmark fields for browser and sync.

The hash tag shortcut still works

Prefixing a word with # searches tags with high priority. Use the explicit filter syntax when the tag must be required.

#work
Prioritizes matching tags named work.
tag:work
Requires the exact tag work.
