Combine search terms / search drilldown

In building the search results page on my new template, it came to me that drill-down searches on tags (and other searchable data) would be a really interesting feature. I did a quick scan of the code, and couldn't find any great way to submit multiple tags into a search. That is, a search term of "TagA TagB" comes back empty, and no standard operators helped with that (AND, &, &&, etc).

If there were a way to submit multiple search terms, it would be somewhat easy for template designers to build the click-throughs to build increasingly complex drill-downs.

My main usage here would be to search for all "Christmas" pictures, then drill down into all "Tree" pictures, and finally "Katlyn". That would get me easily all of my family pictures that we take every year in front of the tree.

Just an idea...

  • The current search is an OR function. You enter tags separated by commas and you get hits where any of the tags are found. You should consider submitting a feature request for boolean operations on the search tags.
  • Thanks, knowing that I can use a comma for OR is all I need for right now. I'll submit a feature request as I dig through my use case a bit more.
