    Hi Andrew,

    Indeed, we are planning on mirroring search results... we're going to call this "Search nodes". It's a huge wish-list item for us as a team :-)

    Excellent.  This and functionality for Recurring Tasks are my top two wishlist items.

    @Frank any idea when this feature might launch?  Agreed, this would be hugely beneficial...

    Another vote for this.  As others have already stated, this would a powerful feature.

    What's also exciting about this feature is that it works very closely to WF's main design idea - lists within lists.  Mirrors were something I saw WF need years ago, and I am SO HAPPY that they are in WF now.  A stored search is precisely the kind of thing that is very true to the heart (as I see it) of WF's design.  (Just trying to exhort you all to doing this sooner rather than later.  I'm the kind of WF user who doesn't really care about fancy dates or whatnot - give me more power in organizing my lists, please!)

    Also, just to bring this to the surface, this would be a "stored search" that dynamically requeried every time one looks at it, right?  That's what I'm talking about, at least.  I don't want a snapshot of a search at a given time. I could see someone wanting that, which is why I mention this.

    Counting the days here!    ... pls make them so they can be shared the same way we can share branches in  workflowy to third parties securely and w/t access to the rest of content.

    Are search nodes still a "huge wish-list item for us as a team" for Workflowy?

    With Logseq, Tana and all the options in the market with that option, and having already the search-saved pages polished, seems that It shouldn't be too difficult to implement the same as a node.

    Can @Frank or @Rodolfo give us an update on this feature, please?

    Hi Adam,

    We don't have a timeline for search nodes... right now we're building color. Internal chatter had color and search nodes as the top two features to build next. So search nodes might be next. It's a good possibility.
