Set a default Time / Date for searches

This isn't "Done"

hamja asked for an option to make past year searches sticky.

I don't want to use a bang and type "!past" or anything else, every time I do a search.

Either remove the Done tag or add the option. Don't offer some crappy work around and claim that you've solved a problem.

gotaug You can't always have all the things you want in life. The request is for a very minor use case, and they probably have to focus on improvements that has an impact on more users.

@gotaug you can also set your search engine in your browser to that string that @Vlad provided, this way you don't even need a bang.

Make a default date range a global setting, instead of a per-search setting.
New searches will default to this global setting (and the user can then decide to expand the search to different date ranges only if desired).

99% of the stuff on the web is outdated. I really don't care about news or articles from 3+ years ago in most of my searches. Most likely, even the entire technology platform they revolve around has changed, so the information just poisons my search results with data rot.

Much like setting up their lenses or other search features, they would also go to the settings to set a default date range that is then being honored for all future searches. (unless lens or other settings override these defaults).

Users would to this feature via the search tab in settings. and it would be a similar input control as the one on the kagi search home page for "Time"

Please allow more configurability of the date and time for searches, especially by providing a per-user global default date and time. As others have mentioned, requiring the user to click the time dropdown on every search is very tedious, and working with dates in general is awkward.

• The From and To date selector should auto-tab between month, day, and year.
• The preset relative Date ranges (e.g. Past Month, Past Year) should be customizable / replaceable: Past 18 Months, Past 6 Weeks, etc.
• The selector should allow a combination of relative date ranges, such as a numerical field and a measurement dropdown, something like "Past __ _______" so the user could enter "120", select "Days", and have a search done for the "Past 120 Days".
• Most importantly, my account's default search range should be customizable and stored in my settings. I'm already logged in, and Kagi does provide a nice array of settings customizations. Better date searching should be a part of those.

Thank you!

Probing for appetite to do anything additional on our end regarding this?
