The Ability to Search Through Our Own Content

Post by LauraGinn »

It would be really useful to be able to search through our content by typing in a keyword, rather than only being able to search via category. I'm currently having to manually look through all of my articles on here to see if I have an article on a relevant topic, and it takes forever.

Hi Laura,

Try this in Firefox:
Open the Find bar using the Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut. Type a search phrase into the field. Firefox will start highlighting instances of your search phrase as you type. It tells you how many it found as well.

For IE:

Hope this helps. Should save you tons of time!

Happy Writing,
WG

Hey,

I've been doing that in Chrome, but it would be nice if it was similar to the main search bar on the site, i.e. you search for soap for example and you get articles that mention soap in addition to having that word in the title.
