Catalog search bug: ex. "auto" returns no hat results, while "automated" does

“Auto” is part of the word “automated” and it should be returning the hat with “automated” in its description. Also preferably with check-boxes labelled “Search name only / description only / both” and “Match case” and “Match whole word only” but those are just extra suggestions (I suppose I’ll make a separate thread for those.)

I love how it searches through descriptions too by the way. <:

[strike]Use wildcard. Search “auto*” to search for words that begin in “auto”.[/strike]

Edit: Did they remove wildcard? It was there a few weeks ago I swear.

Pretty sure they removed it in 2010 - it used to exist in the user search page.

There’s no way it’s been gone more than 3 months. I was using it for some stuff earlier this year.

Might’ve been in the catalog search then. I definitely remember it being removed from the user search page though.
