Search for words in a different order

Question

Hi,

Is there a way in which you can search for words in a different order than they are in the title of the Confluence article and get a match result?

For example, if I look for test case but the title of the Confluence article is 'case test' then it won't find me this article.

Thank you in advance!

Ioana

Thank you so much, Stephen! This is really helpful when I try to search for Confluence's search bar. I haven't explained it fully: I have an article in which I included 100 names and  a Live search option (this is the name of the key included in the article body). If I use this key, the option suggested by you doesn't work.

So is there any way i can search within an article, for the titles included in there, with that Live search key so that i can find all the articles that include some key words even if they are not in the exact order as in the actual name?

I hope this makes sense.

Thank you so much again for your help!

Hi Ioana,

try doing a search like "title:test AND title:case".

That should find both "test case" and "case test".

(note that the capitalization of AND is important)
