Searching cahtaboutdg

Was it in these forums that I saw a new way to search chataboutdg? or does anyone know? I recall you use to have to put a + sign between each word.

 

I found where I saw the info. You now have to use a comma instead of the + sign. Thanks for looking

 

Oh, I was still using the Boolean method, typing AND between words. I'll now use the comma.

 

Pam, that was the info I found but it didn't work for me. I searched double, candle, holder and didn't get any results.

 

even tried double, candleholder and the results were anything and everything

 

I've never been able to search more than 2 identifiers. Try Double AND Candle to see what happens.

 

you can use the + sign in front of each word or separate words with 'and'
example gets same results:
+Fostoria +tray
Fostoria and tray

you can also use the - sign or 'not':
for example if wanting to search for all candlestick or holders and not see candlewick when using the * (wildcard):
candle* -candlewick
candle* not candlewick

and I've successful used the 'and' for as many as 4 terms

 

Thanks Don

 

Well no wonder I find that site frustrating. Had no idea that was how you were supposed to search.

 

I just realized I transposed the h and a. Glad yall knew what I meant.
