How to search for partial text?

I am trying to search on partial text but it is not returning any results. For example, the title of my card is WR12345. If I search on 12345, I get nothing. I have to include the "WR" to get the card returned in the search results. I have tried using *12345, *12345*, %12345, and %12345%. I've been googling it but cannot find this particular search scenario. Is Trello able to perform these types of searches?

Thanks for the help. Pic 1.png Pic 2.png

Sorry, You are right. It is not possible.

An alternativ way :

if you have to use a specific pattern for card naming, you can create a butler rule to

extract automatically a partial text which will be considered as a keyword.
save it in custom field.

Then you can make a search based on this keyword.

Hi

For a card seaching use the feature in the board menu. Not the search bar.

See this

Thank you, however I did read that article and tried that before posting. I am unable to get it to work. Am I doing something incorrectly?

Thanks, I will try that.

Did you archived that card?

Because *Search Cards* feature is a local search, you cannot get archived cards.
