Fielded searching
Within this website, it is possible to search on specific fields within a document. To specify a field, you must first type the field name, followed by an equals sign and then query. For example, ‘title=fielded’, would search all of the documents on the website with a title containing ‘fielded’.
If the query is more than one word, then it must be specified as a phrase. Use either double quotes to mark the start and end (title="fielded searching") or a semi-colon to separate each of the words in the phrase (title=fielded;searching)
