General search information |
Enter a search string that contains both words and operators. Operators (see below) specify requirements such that a word must be present or absent in matching rows, or that it should be weighted higher or lower than usual. |
By default (when no operator is specified) each search word is optional, but the rows that contain any of the words are rated higher. |
The rows returned are sorted with the highest relevance first. Relevance is computed based on the number of words in the row, the number of unique words in that row, the total number of words in the collection, and the number of rows that contain a particular word. |
Common words such as "some" or "then" are stopwords and are ignored if present in the search string. |
In addition, words shorter than 4 characters are considered common and are ignored. To search for "cum" try "cum*" |
Hyphenated words are treated as distinct words. ("big-tits" is the same as "big tits") |
The search is performed in case-insensitive fashion. |
Search operators |
[+] A leading plus sign indicates that this word must be present in each row that is returned. |
[-] A leading minus sign indicates that this word must not be present in any of the rows that are returned. |
[~] A leading tilde acts as a negation operator, causing the word's contribution to the row's relevance to be negative. This is useful for marking "noise" words, as a row containing such a word is rated lower than others, but is not excluded altogether, as it would be with the - operator. |
[*] The asterisk serves as the truncation (or wildcard) operator. Unlike the other operators, it should be appended to the word to be affected. Words match if they begin with the word preceding the * operator. |
[""] A search phrase enclosed in double quotes will try to match text literally. |
