# search form

 * Hi, I have a question about the search form used within the Directorist plugin.
   If I search for a company name, eg ‘Target’, it brings up 9 results. One of them
   is Salmon Leadership, and I can’t see any mention of the word target in their
   profile, so I’m confused why they’re coming up for this search term. Is there
   any way I can adjust the search field so it searches within the company name 
   only?
 * Thanks, hope you can help
