       #api In the PI management dashboard you can now search for multiple things at once using different mixes of identifiers separated by spaces,  like:920666 buzzcast 41504 396d9ae0-da7e-5557-b894-b606231fa3eaThis would return PI feed id 920666, feeds with the term "buzzcast", PI feed id 41504 and the feed with guid "396d9ae0-da7e-5557-b894-b606231fa3ea"

       If your search phrase has multiple words in it, surround it with quotes.  Like:920666 "Crime Junkie" 41504 396d9ae0-da7e-5557-b894-b606231fa3ea

       This is very helpful when doing "merges".  You know two feeds need to be merged into one, but sometimes getting them both to show up in the list is difficult.  This solves that.

       @dave So it's an OR query?That always frustrated me with searches. Because surrounding one of the terms with quotation marks seems like it should be verbatim. Like "Crime Junkie" would return different results from "Junkie Crime."So is quoted resulting in a verbatim search?

       @theDanielJLewis The phrase goes to the search indexer (Sphinx/Manticore), so whatever relevance algo it applies is how it gets returned.  It's not a SQL LIKE because that is just too inefficient to be useful.

       @theDanielJLewis Exact hit on title is also tricky since there are many times you can't get it right.  Like "Curry and the Keeper".  I just search "curry keeper" since I can never remember if the and is "and" or if it's an ampersand".

       @theDanielJLewis In the context of this type of search the quoting is a delimiter instead of a literal indicative.  I think what you might want instead (and it's a good idea) is that if the quoted phrase is the only thing being searched for then it's treated as a literal title match, but becomes a fuzzy search if included in a list of other search types.

       @theDanielJLewis I'll add that change.

       @dave Another approach you could take is what I've seen some other tools do, using actual delimiters.Amazon, for example, using |, and you could potentially use a simple comma.With a comma, you could automatically turn each thing into a sort of "tag," like I do with PodChapters' transcription engine:

       @theDanielJLewis That's a good idea.  I have some UI tagging code from a different project I could just copy and paste over.
