The calendar no longer has a search function for all past appointments.
This function is indispensable. How can you prove which dates services were provided in the past?
Please reinstall it immediately!
Thank you

The ability to search the calendar in such a way that all calendars (or individual calendars) can be searched backwards to the very beginning or forwards to the very end by choosing one of two options: search for events in the future, search for events from the past.

This is a very easy to implement and essential feature. Please introduce such a search option for all calendars (including subscribed ones)

Thank you

Josch, you're right. This search is missing in all the events of the past.
I use it to be able to process my interventions in my clients and to be able to charge them.
Please reactivate this search as soon as possible.

Thank you.

I also found another problem with the Nebula 128 version.
When I searches by categories in the search field, Thunderbird filters absolutely nothing, like on version115 that it works well.
Damage...
I think I'm going to reinstall the Supernova 115 version.
Thank you for reading me.

I agree, I am a disabled vet and need to search back years at times for medical appointments with notes. I use search using "all" often. Please bring this back. I'm sure the "search all" calendar feature missing will affect many T-Bird users. How can we make this happen?

I agree, I need it often to find past medical appointments with notes to manage my healthcare.

Please add the search "all" function in Nebula's calendar, ASAP!

It worked for me. Now, I can search past and future events with this extension. Thank you for taking the time to help me, I appreciate it very much.

Hello,
Thank you for this partially working add-on.
On the other hand, research according to the categories entered does not work.
Very pity when we create categories like "A-charge," to process, or any other spa.
In new program upgrades, it is a pity that the old functions, which worked very well, are no longer usable in new versions.

It appears that the search is now LIMITED by whatever the "View Filter" is set for in the Calendar View....so it only searches in the view interval.

What would fix this easily is for them to add an ALL EVENTS view and make it the Default.

By having an ALL EVENTS view, this would include both PAST and FUTURE events, including those 
beyond 12 months.

For convenience, they could also add a PAST EVENTS view option, to quickly be able to see which events were in the past!

In the new version (128.1.0 esr) of Thunderbird the ability to search the whole calendar has been taken away. Now, you are only allowed to search the current view, month, or day, and future events. In previous versions, you could search the whole calendar. Please bring it back.

Also, in effort to maybe "reset" the search facility in the calendar. I closed the widget. How do you get it back. I don't see a way.

I fully agree that it is completely absurd to remove the option to search for the past events. I actually use events search just for the past events to know when some event occured for the last time and how long it is ago.

Not sure when the change was made, but the Thunderbird calendar (formerly Lightning?) event search now works only within a selected window (see image).

My issue is that I when I search for events, I usually want to look in previous years, and I don't see any way to search historical events.

Am I missing something?

Thanks!
