Hi
Is there a way to search exact phrases and get them results only
For example
If I want to search “red glove” and only searches come up with exactly red glove in order how do I do it?
As it never seems to work with spacings
No highlighted yellow sections are show as normally shown when you type in one word

Hope that makes sense

Hey ,

out of curiosity I just went ahead and tried it with the example of blood boots. I used "" before and after my search query, like this:

Code
"blood boots"


And for me it seems to be working, displaying only topics that contain blood boots (either in the topic title or the words mentioned in the topic in clear terms), as shown here:




Was that what you're looking to do?

When I try to search for certain rings with stats
And I type in “20 str”
It brings lots and lots of posts that have nothing to do with 20 str in
Can you try that search example to see what I mean please

In addition to the above, this is an info page with the different operators within the search feature: https://forums.d2jsp.org/info.php?p=31

When using the combined commands to search for rings with 20 str, you will also encounter topics with long offer lists that contain both keywords but don't necessarily contain any rings with 20 str. For example, this search results in showing topics that contain "20 str" as well as the word ring:
Code
( "20 str" ) & ( ring )


Explicitly searching for "20 str ring" will probably not give any results, as most people won't have the exact wording in order and might have multiple rings listed under a header named "rings".
