Description

Hello we have been using Redmine for a couple of months now and just realized that if the subject has letters in uppercase, then doing a search with that word fails to show up in Redmine.

Any ideas why or if there's a fix/workaround?

This is very annoying.

History

Updated by Fatima Mojaddidy about 2 years ago

Upon further testing I believe its not the case of the letters but the number of letter put in the search box. Redmine will not search for two letter words.

  • Subject changed from Redmine unable to search for upper case letters to Can not search for 2 letters word
  • Category set to Search engine
  • Priority changed from Normal to Low

Words shorter than 3 characters are excluded from search:

+1

We use lot of 2 characters abbreviations and cannot search for them because of this limitation.
Would be great to decrease the excluded length to 1 char (or even remove this limitation).

We are in the same situation as David, can't search for 2 characters abbreviated words.
