Search Queries and Precise Searching
You can customize the queries to get better results.
Given that, no colon ":" suffixes the term, then the default query is constructed for text searches. The default query is:
(cm:name:"[term]*" OR cm:title:"[term]*" OR cm:description:"[term]*" OR TEXT:"[term]*" OR TAG:"[term]*")
Note that compared to Share the following defaults are removed from ACA:
OR ia:whatEvent:"[term]*" OR ia:descriptionEvent:"[term]*" OR lnk:title:"[term]*" OR lnk:description:"[term]*"
Key facts
If you have entered more than one word into the search input box, then the search query is constructed automatically using an AND operation.
I you have entered more than one word encapsulated in quotation marks, then the search query is constructed treated everything as a single string.
If you have entered more than one word separated by AND, then the search query is constructed using an AND conjunction.
If you have entered more than one word separated by OR, then the search query is constructed using an OR disjunction.
If you have entered an = symbol before the search term, then the search query is constructed using exact term matching.
