It seems that the search bar can only search in questions or in answers, but not in both of them. Is there a way to make the search more flexible so that it checks both questions and answers together?

Hi @Julian3 welcome to comunity, 👏

It searches both the questions and the answers and displays the result.

Hi there, @Sina 👋

Julian mentioned a situation when you’re searching for a phrase. For example, if you search for “Elfsight subscription” and “Elfsight” is only used in questions while “subscription” appears only in answers, the widget won’t return any results. However, if you search for the words separately, the widget will find them.

@Julian3, your suggestion sounds interesting and we’ll try to think it over in the future, especially if it gets more votes 🙂
