PowerSearch
Power Search Explanation
The new "Power Search" box gives you flexibility to find exactly what you are looking for in one search.
To maximize it's capabilities please read over the following explanation:
The Power Search field is based on a very simple model similar to Google searches. You specify words with "modifiers" to get exactly what you are searching for and the Power Search will search the entire Listing for matches.
The available "modifiers" are:
+
The "Plus" sign says that the results
must
contain the following word
-
The "Minus" sign says that the results
must NOT
contain the following word
*
The "Star" is a
Wild Card
and will match a partial word
"
Putting "Quotes" around a phrase will search for that exact phrase
No Modifier
The search will match any listing that contains a word with no modifier
Basic Valid Examples:
a b c
= Will match any listing that contains a or b or c
+a +b +c
= Will only match an listing that contain all of a and b and c
-a -b +c
= Will match any listing that does not contain a or b but does contain c
"ab c"
= Will match the phrase "ab c"
*a "b c"
= Will match any listings that have a word that ends in "a" and contains the phrase "b c"
Rules
--Multiple modifiers
can
be used together in 1 search, Example:
+ab c* -defg
is valid
--Individual search terms
can not
contain more than 1 modifier, Example:
+"ab c"
is
not
valid
