Hi,

this website is a great tool for doubts, issues and problems... nevertheless it's very cumbersome to find an answer for an issue you might come up with because the search is performed against all visible fields.

Is there any "advanced" search that can be used? So that one can limit the search to only look in the "question" field and not in the "description"? It seems to me that if a searched term appears in the "question" it is much more relevant than when it appears at the end of a description.

would be nice to get an advanced search.

thanks,
Jacques.

Indeed. It was identified really strongly as the #1 thing people are not liking about Answers. I posted an update from our survey at https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/32477/feedback-from-answers-survey.
