Advanced Search or Syntax Cheat Sheet for Forum & Knowledge Base
Quote from pf-amalin on November 14, 2025, 5:10 pmI'd like to request an Advanced Search option—or at least a documented syntax cheat sheet—for both the NITRO Support Forum and the Knowledge Base.
When searching the forum, especially with multiple keywords, I’m seeing inconsistent or unexpected results. For example, using two words with or without “OR” returns the same number of results, but adding “AND” actually returns more, even though AND should be more restrictive.
Here are a few examples:
3 pages:
tab JavaScript3 pages:
tab OR JavaScript18 pages:
tab AND JavaScriptA simple reference outlining what operators are supported—phrases, boolean logic, exclusions, and so on—would make searches a bit easier and more intuitive.
An Advanced Search option or a brief cheat sheet for the Knowledge Base would also be very helpful.
Thanks for considering this enhancement.
