Search by list name and wildcard

kitkatneko says:
Hi,
As I am sorting by tasks, I have suffixed my list with w_ for work h_ for home and others.
I am trying to save search that would give me all of the tasks that have not been assigned a due date and that are part of the multiple lists starting with X

I assumed something like this would have worked but it doesn't.

search= due:never AND list:w_*

or even if I had to type in all my lists
search = due:never AND (list:w_1 OR list:w_2 OR list:w_3)

Can it be achieved?

Thank you for your cooperation

Maybe you could use tags or location instead for this, works right now.
For example, there's a tagContains operator you could use.

Hi kitkatneko,
You're correct, it's not currently possible to search for list names this way. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Thanks for voting in the Ideas forum.
