Something weird happens when trying to use a custom entity multi-select as a custom field. When searching for "Apple W" these results show:
Yet when trying to search for "Apple Wat" this happens completely breaking this search functionality:
Does anyone know why this happens? It also seems to happen in other fields. I've also tried setting the search settings to "AND", but I presume that to only be working for the Storefront search.
Edit:
A similar problem seems to appear when using the Storefront search with "OR" as your search behaviour or when having "Split search terms" enabled on 'product name' in the search configuration.

Currently in M365 Lists, you can only do a partial word search using a wildcard. This also applies to SharePoint searches, but does not apply to most other M365 programs. I contacted Microsoft because, in earlier versions, it was a setting to enable or disable needing the wildcard. Microsoft says it cannot be done - need to use wildcard. I do know that when you start typing in the Search, it will bring up all records with whatever you type directly under the Search. If you pick one, it brings you up to another screen - again users not used to and not feasible. If you enter on the Search with a partial word, it brings up a blank list.
Issue - this is for a phone database that over 1500 people use. Current database does not require wildcard. So you can type kal and get all names starting with kal. To try to tell 1500 people how to do it (include wildcard), is just not feasible. I have asked Microsoft if we could add a field to top of list that we could code to search (without wildcard). Have not heard back yet, but it seems like it is first level support that is answering any support questions I have even when I ask to give it to someone higher up.
So, does anyone know how you can do a partial word search in Lists without the wildcard - either by changing the config of Search or creating a new field that will allow users to search? Welcome to all ideas. Thanks!
I have noticed that when performing a phrase search with double quotes, azure Search return appropriate search results but it highlights each individual word in the phrase.
For example when we do phrase search on “data scientist” it highlights “Data” and "Scientist" as well ideally it should have highlighted just “data scientist”.
Is this the default behavior of Azure Search and is there any way to alter it.

Unfortunately there is no way to customize this behavior at the moment.
In Azure Search we use Lucene's Postings Highlighter. This highlighter ignores positions of terms that matched, that's why you see all phrase terms highlighted independently.
You could refer to the similar SO thread.

I want to send queries to Wolfram Alpha real fast. I've been using wiki query from search bar for ages, how can I search on WA?
Ultimately I found the solution myself, but it took me some time and I had to devise the solution myself, since all Google searches returned the extension which I wanted to avoid. Here it is.
Right click the address bar and click Edit search engines...
(or open Settings -> Search -> Manage search engines...)
Usually, you can find all recognized search engines you used already listed there, but if not, add this: (*use any keyword of your choice)
The query url: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%s
Now it is possible to use wa query from search bar to search on Wolfram Alpha. Note, this method allows you to use any search engine.
This is really handy! I wonder if adding it in Chrome as a search engine is better than using the Wolfram Alpha chrome extension though. That is much easier to search using just combination of "=" followed by space and you can directly type in your search query to the Math engine :)
Wolfram|Alpha (Official)
Instantly query Wolfram|Alpha from any page or tab.
There is more to it, you can type formula and equations directly in your navigation bar using this on any page or tab. Pretty neat!

===FEATURES===
✓ Wolfram|Alpha Button – Access the Wolfram|Alpha query box with just one click. You can also right-click the Wolfram|Alpha icon to change extension options.
✓ Omnibox Shortcut – Transform Chrome's omnibox into a Wolfram|Alpha query field by typing an = sign followed by a space.
✓ Context Menu Shortcut – Highlight text to create queries through a context menu (right-click) entry.
Shouting out to StackOverflow community:
I am still learning and appreciating the power of this engine. If you guys have some resources or content apart from Wolfram's official site, please do share!
This will really help me as a beginner in the field and I can use to improve.
What better way to search than the famous Euler's Identity. In Chrome Nav bar
"=" ==> (space) ==> e^(i*pie) ==> (enter)
Or something like:
"=" ==> (space) ==> sqrt(1779)*cube(pi) ==> (enter)
And see the result instantly in Wolfram. Awesome isn't it?
For some reason, a search for our company name (“hometalk”) does not produce the search box in the results (even though we do have sitelinks).
We are adding schema markup as outlined here, but we're not sure about:
Will adding the code make the search bar appear (or at least increase the chances), or is it only going to change the functionality of the search box (to on-site search) for results that are already showing a search bar?
It is only going to change the functionality of the search box (to on-site search) for results that are already showing a search bar.
As stated here: https://developers.google.com/webmasters/richsnippets/sitelinkssearch
Search box not displaying? The sitelinks search box appears only for navigational queries and when relevant for users. Google
algorithms use a variety of factors to determine when the box appears,
including the information on the site and different types of
navigational queries from Search users.
Have two questions.
Make the search filter form non modal.
Allow searching by pressing enter key instead of having to press the Find button.
thanks.
sachin,
Your question seems to be more of a statement, but if you're looking for various options for jqgrid, take a look at:
http://www.trirand.com/jqgrid/jqgrid.html#
New in Version 3.5 > Integrated Search Toolbar
This allows you to interactively search and it respects the Enter key.
However, you lose operators... but I suppose you could modify the code that's given to add something similar back in (or bundle your operator in with the text....ie, user enters "> 400" rather than "400", but this poses security risks)
