Filtering by journal
You can filter the search option to just one journal. Start typing with /
, Diarly will display suggestions with all available journals to filter.
Using quotes for exact match
When a search includes multiple words, like wonderful Monday morning
, the results will include entries that have both words (but not necessarily in the determined order). For example, the phrase On Monday, a wonderful tabby cat visited me in the morning.
To search for an exact phrase, you can add double quotes (""
) around your search, like so: "wonderful Monday morning"
. In this case, the phrase This wonderful Monday morning
would be matched.
