Webserver search != app search?

DEVONthink Tips
1

Hi,

i was just testing the web server, thinking of making it available for me when I’m powerbookless. Searching for a word or phrase inside the application returns quite a different result set from the same search with the webserver. I am used to finding some of my frequently referred things by a quick search, this didn’t work at all with the webserver.

Is this correct, and a bug? Or by design? Or should the search be identical?

Have you set the search options in the web interface similar to your search options in DEVONthink itself?

thanks eboehnisch, that was it

I changed the web comparison setting to Fuzzy, like it is in the Search window, and now it finds everything I look for. Super!

Does the Search field in the toolbar use the Search window settings?

No, it has its own settings in the magnifying glass popup menu.
