Search by date function is ambiguous #1608

Open nus-pe-bot opened 5 years ago

nus-pe-bot commented 5 years ago

When I search by 'date 11', the results just return the items in the list that have the number 11 in their dates, regardless of whether its the month/day. I feel as a user that this is not very useful/unhelpful. It should be clearly stated in the user guide how the search by date feature can be used appropriately like "You can use the search by date to search your items in the list by their day in the date" or something rather than just looking whether the digits exist in the date format.

This can be improved by adding commands like search date, search month and search year which are clearer and more specific to users.
