We changed “member” to “contributor” within trust levels, but it’s been difficult to find all instances of “member” within Customize text. If I search member, we get more than 50 results and same if I search trust, but I haven’t figured out how to search for both trust AND member in order to narrow the results.
AI-generated summary
The discussion revolves around searching for the term “member” specifically related to trust levels in the Customize Text feature. debryc notes difficulty in finding instances of “member” within trust level contexts, as searches return too many results. codinghorror suggests using the English translations file on GitHub for more precise changes. debryc asks if the search functionality will be improved, particularly for AND operations. zogstrip seeks clarification on what “more robust” means, and debryc clarifies the need for an AND search between “member” and “trust.” sam states that AND logic is already supported, and Stephen confirms that searching for two terms should return results where both appear. awesomerobot explains that searches are treated as quoted strings, meaning partial phrases like “starting conversation” may not match. debryc agrees with this explanation and provides examples showing the limitation of partial phrase searches.
For wide reaching changes such as this, it might make more sense to search the English translations file (on GitHub) in your favorite text editor, which will give you more options and let you know what the string keys are that you might want to change.
I’ll give it a shot!
Are there plans to make searching more robust within customize text in the future?
Can you define “more robust”?
In this particular case, I was craving the AND operation. “Member” AND “Trust”.
That is already the case, we do not support OR
What text should I be entering exactly? I tried and couldn’t get AND to work.
If you search two terms it should only show where both appear, instead of either.
When we search text strings in Customize Text we’re treating anything entered as if it’s wrapped in quotes…
For example, I can search thanks for starting a new conversation to find the education.new-topic string
but I can’t search starting conversation and get the same string
