    Pattern matching for macro names (disable, etc.)

    What you're suggesting is even more work than the standard way. If I make one macro to control time-based triggers, one for location-based, one for WiFi-status based, then I have to add an "else" clause to those for each new macro I make. And if I decide to remove or merge a couple of macros, I...

    Pattern matching for macro names (disable, etc.)

    You can't have a macro in more than one category, but you can have more than one identifier in the name.

    Pattern matching for macro names (disable, etc.)

    It would be VERY helpful if we could stop, enable, disable (etc.) macros based on a part of the name, such as by using "* ScrOn" to specify macros named "Whatever ScrOn" to stop when the screen comes on. In this way whole groups of macros could be handled by one statement or variable. I've been...

    Is anyone else having problems with the Webhook function?

    Yes, it should and it normally does. Both devices have been using the Webhook on a regular basis (daily), and the macros used for that purpose haven't been edited in months. They were both working fine until yesterday. This happened one other time in January. I didn't have the current version...

    Update: Switching to the beta fixed the issue on both devices.

    Is anyone else having problems with the Webhook function?

    I have two devices using it on a fairly regular basis, one of them several times a day, and at the moment neither of them are responding to the Webhook trigger. The most-used one was triggered yesterday for the last time. They are both using the current (non-beta) MacroDroid version. One is...

    My phone or MD?

    Every phone I've ever used has had the option to change a setting to allow from alternate sources. Your phone doesn't have that? Is it a Chinese brand?

    Regex and Extract text

    Maybe it's just me, but why not split to an array using ">" as a delimiter, take the last entry, and split again using "<" as the delimiter, or just replace </div> with nothing?

    Notification bar button: Permanent?

    I used a NBB trigger, but now I don't need it. However, I have no idea how to get rid of the button. Any advice?

    Logcat trigger issues

    I'm having a problem with the logcat trigger. It seems that most of the time MD is unable to access the messages at all. Once in a while, for no apparent reason, if I "Capture Logcat Messages," I will get a full readout of everything from the interval. But then the very next time I try, and...

    Better help for Shortcut Launched trigger

    Edit: After reading the link I see that you're right. However, this is also on that page: "For macros that are only designed to be invoked from Android shortcuts it still makes sense to use this trigger to make it clear this is the intended use." In other words, it is good for the sake of...

    Better help for Shortcut Launched trigger

    The issue I'm trying to raise is that I can't find any help in the program that tells anyone how to do that in order to use the Shortcut Launched trigger. Not for me but for new users. But yes, that is what I meant.

    Logcat trigger issues

    Update: I changed my phone's screen font size and then the captured text was visible. After changing it back to the prior size, it is still visible. Is this a bug? Something particular to my phone? Edit: Now the problem seems to come and go. But so far I am unable to see the captured text if I...

    Logcat trigger issues

    I'm having a problem getting logcat output. As far as I can tell, triggers are working, but when I hit the "capture logcat" button and then hit stop, the window that should display the text appears empty. Once before a reset solved this, but resetting has not fixed it this time. Any hints? I'm...

    Better help for Shortcut Launched trigger

    As far as I can see, there is nothing in the help about how to make a home screen shortcut for a Shortcut Launched trigger. Right there in the basic Help for each trigger, Shortcut Launched should tell you how to make a shortcut, for the new people. I can't even remember how I got the...

    How to make a shortcut to a macro

    Edit: I know how to make a shortcut on the home screen. My point is that I don't think there is any clear information IN THE APP on how to do that. Original message below... Did I miss it somewhere, or is there no info in the app on how to make a shortcut for a macro? As in, when the trigger is...
