Performing an Advanced Search

Learning how to perform and advanced search.

You can narrow down the search results by using an advanced search, which is accessible via the search results of a standard search In old Plone sites, a search tab brought users to this page; you can reenable this tab if you want.
The advanced search form enables a user to query content using a number of attributes, including title, keywords, description, review state, creation date, content type, and even author, as well as the search text (as used in the quick search available from the top-right corner).


Although the search text field searches both the title and description, you may want to search the description or title only. For that reason, these fields are presented on the advanced search form. You can't search the title and description using the wildcards, globbing, or any of the advanced search options. Any search result will match the input (if given) of all the fields; the results will be an intersection of all the terms.
