Confluence "space search" Syntax

[Ionut]

Hi guys,

So I have a confluence space that I've created and I've added a "Search this place" box.

I saw that when I search a complete word existing in the space (e.g. Workout) it points me to the place where that word is, which is ok. But when I search a half of word (e.g. Work), the search syntax doesn't find anything.

Do you happen to have a workaround for this? I've tried to edit the "Live search Macro" but I couldn't find anything helpfull there.

Thanks in advance,

Ionut

You can use "*" as a wildcard to do a partial word search. One thing to note the wildcard will not work at the front of the word, only the middle or end. Take a look at the below link for more details on the search capabilities.
