[vNext] Link to tags in other logs

Hi all,
I organise my campaign with at least three logs. One is for ideas, secrets, informations, etc, basically what could be/happen [Ideas]. The second is a session log with what happened and what I have to prepare for next sessions and so on [Session log]. The third is a template collections [Templates] where I put empty templates for elements I use, e.g. Scene, NPC, factions, etc. It is not that big but it is useful. For example when I have to design a new scene, I go there, open the scene template and copy it to my other log, either [Session Log] or [Ideas].
It often happens that when I'm preparing my next session in my [Session Log] I put references to ideas in my [Ideas] log, but when I click on it, I only see entries from my [Session Log]. I would like to see the entry in my [Ideas] log as well...
Is there a way to see all the entries that contains one specific tag belonging to all the logs of a campaign?

If not, does it make sense to ask for such a feature? Is this useful for anyone?

Happy logging!

If you open your campaign and are on the tab showing your logs within that campaign, you can use search/filter to search every log of the campaign.
If you are in a campaign entry, you can search/filter to find matching entries within logs.

I had the same "issue" and solved it by mining my Ideas Log periodically and creating campaign entries from it.

Thank you Jochen,
I see... even though I only see the number of the entries in each log, not the entries themselves... but could be enough.
So Campaign entries are showed from whichever log I search into

Happy logging!

Correct! Regarding the search result from the Campaign Entry page. We thought about maybe making it "expandable" in a way to further investigate the resulting logs before jumping into a log. It's not highest priority right now, however.
