Search for a phrase

Perhaps the better option would be if we introduce to the standard search the ability to force a phrase by simply quoting it “This is a test” which would then make use of the search operators “literal” parameter
eg: {{{ [all[tiddlers]search::literal[This is a test]] -[<currentTiddler>] }}}.

The out of the box way to extend search is to use Customising search results

  • I built this for you, place you This is a Test in the sidebar search and click the down arrow, then the Search as Phrase tab.
  • In this case you don’t wrap it in quotes, the whole search is the literal string.

This is so easy to do I made more to use with Projectify.
