Tasks plugin: Path includes filter fails with quotes

Help
1

What I’m trying to do

Task “path includes” filter does not work with quotes in file names:

not done
due on or before today
path includes 'Daily Larger'
sort by description

Things I have tried

Remove the quotes and it works fine:

not done
due on or before today
path includes Daily Larger
sort by description

This needs to be better documented. I naturally put quotes around file names that had hyphens or spaces just like any other query language. Apparently, Obsidian task queries interpret the string after ‘path includes’ as a bare string.

Just to clarify, I added Tasks plugin: to the topic title. (they look like Tasks queries, but if I’m wrong please let me know)

Hopefully someone can jump in here, but I’d have a look at the Tasks documentation again – their documentation is some of the best for a community plugin from what I’ve seen.

You could also check the #tasks channel in the Obsidian Discord server. One of the devs hangs out there and is always helping out. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
