Search in site paths

    Hello,

    I’m using the 3.2.1–fr_FR multisite version of WordPress.
    In older versions, we were allowed, in the multisite dasboard, to search in full text mode, to find blogs site by Path/URL, only with a part of the path/URL..

    We can’t do that right now.. is there any solution ? I try with a star (*) following the first word of the path, but it can solve my problem. I’m looking for a way to search with a part of the URL..

    Thanks for your answers.

    Thierry

    You can’t put the * in front.

    You can search for ‘foo*’ and ‘bar*baz’ but NOT ‘*oo’ if that makes sense.

    It doesn’t work for me..

    For exemple, I have urls/paths like this :

    ‘/19-brive-college-moulin-daav/’ or ‘/87-limoges-college-ronsard-cdi/’ and a lot of more (almost 300..) like ‘/87-limoges-college-maupassant/’… ’23-gueret-college-favard-cdi’, etc..

    And I would like to find all of the paths with ‘college’ inside..

    How can I do ?

    Those URL were made especially to allow good searching.. it was working with old version (to 2.9) of WP..

    It does work. You cannot search fo *college*.

    You CAN search for 19-*

    Does that make sense?

    This was changed in version 3.1 of WordPress, by the way.

    The problem is that I don’t want to search by the first word, or the beginning ofthe URL…It was better before… I think this is not a good evolution..
    All of of my strategy is down…

    This was explained, in far more detail, about a year ago.

    The short answer is that now the search works the same way on the whole back-end of WP – it’s consistent across the board, which was the goal of this change.
