Wiki Search

The Wiki Module allows for a variety of ways to search its contents. Each section has several examples of search terms, and explanations for what they would yield.

  1. Basic Search
  2. Advanced Search
  3. Namespace Search

Basic Search

Examples:

cookies

This would search for the word "cookies", appearing in any article title or content.

Advanced Search

Examples:

"almond cookies"

This would search for the exact phrase "almond cookies". The phrase could appear in either the article title or content.
