search for a phrase?

Postby Tortoise » Sun 11 Nov, 2012 1:23 pm

I've probably missed something :roll: ... but is there a way to search for an exact phrase?

I've tried before, but haven't found it. My current search highlights my problem.
I'm trying to search for 'Fleece Creek' - as you can probably imagine, there are rather a lot of posts with 'fleece', and rather a lot with 'creek'! Most of which are not what I'm after. Is there a way?

Put it in quotation marks? Or use advanced search function?

Quotation marks work - thanks, Strider :) Now that you mention it, ... :roll:
I'd tried the advanced search without success.
