Pretty straightforward question:

When I’m in the control panel edit content screen, how do I search on multiple keywords? (i.e. not a phrase)

I’ve tried

keyword1 keyword2
keyword1 + keyword2
+keyword1 +keyword2
keyword1, keyword2

but none of them work.

Hi, Chuck. That sort of functionality isn’t built into the Control Panel. Your best bet would be to add or reply to an existing feature request.

I’m surprised and disappointed to hear that.

We just upgraded to EE2 from pMachine Pro (I know), and my users are asking for search like it worked in pMachine (which apparently could handle multiple keywords?).

Chuck,

Wow that was a large jump 😊 Unfortunately a feature request is the way to go here. Hopefully the ajax search and filters are of some benefit to your users.

Thanks, John.

Yes, I showed them the search functionality that does exist and how to use the filters.

Unfortunately our AJAX search actually DOESN’T work right now, heh.

I’m sure we’ll get by for now, just an inconvenience we’ve got to learn to deal with.

Thank you for your feedback. Please post again as needed.
