Search Function

[adam glegg]

Hi Again,

As explained in the previous question im currently building a knowledge base for our company, apart of that knowledge base is also a medical term dictionary. (with some very interesting spelling at times i might add!!) this leads to one of my questions.

1) is there any possiblity to enable the search functions to search solely on one page ?

2) is there anyway we can enable the search funtion to still search if the word isnt spelt 100% correctly ?

e.g Confluncce

result - did you mean confluence ?

thanks so much

Adam

#1 - yes - if you use a unique label. Giev the page a label that doesn;t exist anywhere else in Confluence, then restrict the search to that label

mySearchTerm AND labelText:myUniqueLabel

or you go to the page and hit control-F and search in the browser!

#1 - I don't think so but you can specify the search on space level (from 'Where' drop down field as per this screen shot: https://confluence.atlassian.com/download/attachments/214861736/FullSearch.png?version=1&modificationDate=1223015461265&api=v2)

#2 - Yes. For example: https://confluence.atlassian.com/dosearchsite.action?queryString=confluncce&where=CONFKB&type=&lastModified=&contributor=&contributorUsername=&search-filter-button=Filter
