What happened?

When filtering by notes with tags that contain dollar signs ($), no results are returned.

Image

The tag is detected and defined.

Filtering instead for notes containing the text of the tag returns results as expected.
Image

How can we reproduce the issue?

  1. Add a tag containing a dollar sign ($) to any transaction.
  2. Add the tag via Find Existing Tags.
  3. Filter all accounts by notes > has tags > <new tag with $>
  4. Filter all accounts by notes > contains > <new tag with $>
