Search Tips

Commands
+ word	Placing a plus sign in front of a word will require that all search results contain that word.
- word	Placing a minus sign in front of a word will ensure that none of the search results contain that word.
"phrase search"	Placing quotes around a string of words will direct the search to return results containing the string of words in the specified order.
+ "phrase search"	Placing a plus sign in front of a quoted string of words will require that all results returned by the search contain the string of words in the specified order.
- "phrase search"	Placing a minus sign in front of a quoted string of words will ensure that no results returned by the search will contain the string of words in the specified order.
substring* or substring or substring*	Placing an asterisk next to a word or string will return results that contain the word or string as part of a larger string, dependant on which side of the word or string the asterisk is placed. For example, searching for "bar" would return "barber", "bar" would return "foobar", and "bar" would return "foobarber". Note that the asterisk does not require that the search string be preceded or followed by any other strings: searching for "bar", "bar" or "bar" would also return "bar".
Words	Do not use short or common words such as "it", "the", "on", "at". Try to keep search terms at least 3 characters in length.
Category Search	You can greatly improve the accuracy of search results by first going to a category where you might expect to find what you are looking for. You then have the option to search "only this category". This will search the current category and its sub-categories only.
