Problem
Browser returns unexpected search results. Specifically, the query: w:tin
returns a card that has string glutin-is
and glutinis
, but doesn’t contain exact string tin
. As per the manual, w:dog
will search for dog
but will NOT search for doggy
or underdog
, so this should be analogous.
I also tried re:\btin\b
but it shows the same results (pretty sure that’s to be expected)
Example
This card shows with search query w:tin
(Note fields):
Expected result
Show cards with string tin
as distinct word, and exclude cards that don’t search for distinct word tin
Actual result:
Shows cards without tin
as a distinct word, but instead shows cards with tin
anywhere within a string (like glutin
and glutin-is
)
Slight clarification
I still get cards that have only tin
string only as well, but also incorrectly get cards that can have tin
anywhere within, ex.
