Hi

The search system supports operators like + and -. This is a side effect of the search engine embedded in the dbms. 2 search modes are provided by the dbms and only one fits the needs of the plugin. The search operators cannot be disabled, and using them is not expected (because not documented and because the feature targets people who are not very experimented with computing).

You should just type words in the search field.

Hello, Does this mean that searching for a word "e-mail" will not work and you will need guidance to just write "mail"?

btry commented 1 year ago

I'm not sure, as I did not tested such case. I believe that a word like e-mail will be processed as a single word.

The operator role of - and + should be conditioned by a preceding space character.

Hi

I did a test and searching for a single word "e-mail" fails. Unfortunately there is not much I can do because the plugin cannot change the search DBMS engine mode without degrading the search experience.
