Can the forum search function search for a phrase?

[Solar Eclipse]

Is it possible to search for a specific phrase?  (It seems the default is to return hits on any words within a phrase)

Also, is there any way to order the search results?  (For example newest first)

Thanks,

Currently, the TurboTax Community forum search function can not do advanced, exact-phrase searching.

The search feature does not have the capability of sorting in any particular order.

I've found there are several ways to do a search.  And I find this year is much better at finding what I want.  If you want to sort or filter I use this link

It gives me this screen......

@VolvoGirl  thanks for this!!  I will experiment with the search options.  But how did you locate that search link?? I don't see any way to get to it from the TT forum...

I don't know.  I've had it bookmarked for a long time.  Actually I was using it on my iPad and couldn't find it on my Windows Desktop.  But I finally got tired of the old regular search so I copied the link from my iPad.  

Now another thing....after you get the search results, if you want to see a post but don't want to lose that search, do a Right Click on the post to see and open it in another tab.  Then you can go back to the search results.  If you do a regular left click on one then when you go back it takes you to the old search layout.

I cannot thank you enough for this, it will save me hours of sifting through hoards of unrelated search hits! 👍
