Hello!
I just reinstalled RW on my new Mac, and I need some help. How can I set the Stack Search to only search within a selected group of stacks instead of searching all stacks? I had this set up before, and if I remember right, I had to enter a command in Terminal to make it work.
I’m using RW Classic.
Thanks so much for your help!
Anything that’s a preference on your Mac can be changed (with a help bit of a crazy unix command) – even when there’s no user interface to change it.
Here how to do it:
Launch the Terminal app. It’s in the Utilities folder of the Applications folder.
Copy the command from below that corresponds to the version of RapidWeaver you’re using. Make sure to get the whole thing including that last 0. and then Paste it into the Terminal window.
DO NOT attempt to just type it in. It’s very easy to make a typo on a command that long and making a typo will make the command not work.
Launch RapidWeaver (if it’s not running already) and verify that it worked. The command should take effect immediately – even when RapidWeaver is running. And it’s reversible, of course – you can change the last 0 to a 1 and it will switch back to “Workman Mode”
For RapidWeaver 8 or RapidWeaver Classic:
defaults write ‘com.realmacsoftware.rapidweaver8’ stacksLibraryAlwaysSearchAll 0
For RapidWeaver from SetApp use this one:
defaults write ‘com.realmacsoftware.rapidweaver-setapp’ stacksLibraryAlwaysSearchAll 0
