This dialog box provides information on the behavior of ELO iSearch when using multiple search terms in different areas.

ELO iSearch allows you to search in different areas, that is, the full text content, the keywording, and the ELO feed.

For technical reasons and to improve search performance, these areas cannot be searched in combination. As a result, when searching for multiple terms, you may get an unexpected result. In this case, the ELO iSearch only lists results that include all search terms in the same area.

Example

Let's assume a document exists containing the term "study" in the short name and the term "survey" appears in the document text. Now, if you search the Full text and Keywording areas for the terms "study" and "survey", ELO iSearch may not find any matching results. But if you searched for one of the terms, you would find matching results.

Apply filter

When searching in multiple areas, we recommend initially only searching for one term and then narrowing down the search result using filters as needed.

For example, apply the All index fields filter to restrict the search result to matches containing the desired term in the keywording.

Information: You can combine multiple filters.
