Search Options

I am about to show my ignorance here so please be gentle. I'm not just a novice but I only get to do this every few months so I spend most of my time relearning what I already figured out. So here's my question.

I have added the search feature to my pages but I can't figure out how to turn of the concatenate option. If I search for "glass" then enter "table" in the search box (without hitting the "clear" button) it searches for (glass) AND (table) even though the text "glass" was not displayed when I typed "table".

Or to put it another way my search works like the search in the "themes" section of the zenphoto website and I want it to work like the search in the "forum" section.

Thanks in advance,

Jerry

    First, on the search options there is a line with radio boxes:
    Treat spaces as
    a) space
    b) OR
    c) AND

    Set to a)

    Also, the search on our site uses the tag_suggest plugin.
  • Hi Acrylian, thanks for the quick response. I just checked and the search option for "Treat Spaces as" is set to SPACE.

    However, it is acting as AND. Just for a test I changed it to OR then AND then back to SPACE but regardless of the setting it ANDs the second search term with the first.

    I also the tag_suggest plugin enabled. I tried turning that off but of course it did not make a difference.

    I appreciate you taking the time to educate me, I know you don't have time to hold my hand on this kind of stuff.

    However, if you are bored and want to go look at my test site it is at http://v4.thefrenchtraditon.com

    There are a few other things I need to fix on it but I'm taking them one at time.

    Thanks again,
    Jerry

    Sorry, I have no further idea and your site is not accessible btw.
  • Ah. Thanks for trying acrylian. It's not accessible because I spelled tradition wrong (left out the second "i").

    The correct link is:

    http://v4.thefrenchtradition.com
