Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

I have several transactions, in one of them I use the question mark in note field.
If I now filter in quick search with "?"

Outcome:
All transactions get displayed.

Expected outcome:
Just show transactions with a question mark in note field.

It seems, the question mark is a "query wildcard" character and is not escaped correctly.

How can we reproduce the issue?

see above.

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Firefox

Operating System

Windows 11
