Strip suggestions from query syntax chars

To make the search more stable, we clear search word suggestions from "dangerous" characters (such as colons, tildes etc). This may mean that you do not get hits on some titles that contain these characters. If you do not wish to have this automatic clearing, tick this box.

Auto suggestions field

Here you can decide whether search word suggestions should show the names of pages or titles.

  • Search by title
  • Search by name (page names)
