Live filter box, how can I get quoted terms to search? E.g., "search term" with quotes not as expected

Post by PlorerXY6 »

Live filter box, how can I get quoted (" ") terms to search properly? E.g., "List A" filter, with file name of "List A - xyz" is not coming up, though it does it File Explorer with same name/terms.

In XYP, I can only get it to come up by doing List A <space>, then it searches as expected. is there anything I'm missing to get the quotes working? They work in File Explorer search...

Quotes mean exact match (match the whole term). For a partial match try this: *List A*
