Advanced searching of content

Post by reg00000 »

Is there any way to do advanced searching of content? Mainly I am looking at multiple words/phrases or multiple words in proximity to each other.

Please try the regex modifier on the content: search function.

For example:

Find word1 where it is 20 characters or less from word2:

regex:content:word1.{0,20}word2




Escape spaces with double quotes:

regex:content:"my first phrase.{0,20}my second phrase"




regex:
content:
