(feat): improve search feature
The search feature should be improved to include more search results. For example, "edworthy open source" displays no results.
added 1 - High P - Search T - Feature labels
changed the description
There are a number of issues with the existing search facility.
- By default, the search results provide only entries that have been created within the last 24 hours and there is no option to view entries that are over a year old.
Therefore I suggest adding a "any time" option and providing this by default.
-
Search does not allow for simple multiple keyword entrie. As demonstrated within @javanick's original example, if I use the keywords "edworthy open source" then nothing is displayed, even though I (medworthy) have used the term "open source" within several previous posts and blog articles.
-
No boolean options. As an example, if I wanted to search for content that contains the term "open" but also doesn't contain the term "source" I would expect to be able to use something similar to "+open -source" as part of the keywords / search condition.
Edited by Mark EdworthyI think that it would be useful to also create a supplementary "advanced search" facility.
Based upon various search engines (and mainly the "advanced search" functionality that is provided by startpage.com) I have sketched an user interface concept based on this idea.
