Question

Overview Search by title or content is ignoring content

I’ve tested this a few times and noticed at least 2 things:

  1. The search box in the Control admin toolset in the Content > Overview says it searches title and content, but my results are only working when the title has the words
  2. Word order matters.  I’m not using quotation marks, but the results act like I am.  Searching for index server load balancing will get a hit (if it’s in the title) but load balancing index server will not (because the word order does not equate)

Is this a setting I can change, or a known issue?

To note, the search on the customer/end user side works fine.

Hello @mstruening, thank you very much for all this very detailed feedback. At the moment we have no short terms plan to change the search engine in Control. It's hard for me to say when we will come around to making some changes there. But you raising this makes us more aware of it. 

I will keep you informed when we plan some improvements on the search in Control :)

Appreciate the reply.  In the meantime, I CAN just go search outside of the Control panel, or use the customer view to click a tag and see all tagged items….it’s just inefficient :-)

Hopefully this gets added onto the list soon enough!
