I use org roam directories to have a kind of hierarchical references. but it’s kinda annoying when i’m searching for a node, i don’t want to see the corresponding subdirectory for each node. how to disable this? ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/orgroam/original/2X/b/bfaaa731508f3384f1050b50a7d93a159952302c.png) ---

Are you saying you would like NOT to show the subdirectory such as “agenda”, “journal” and “references” when you call `org-roam-node-find`, but would still like to see all the nodes? This is done via your own configuration. I suggest you check your value of variable `org-roam-node-display-template`. The default does not show subdirectory. It may also be useful to refer to this part of [README](https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam#configuration). ---

Thank you, I configured it long time ago that I forgot about that 🙂
