It would be really nice if Koha supported general phrase searches like search engines do. Search for "World Book" with quotes around it should not give the same results as searching for it without quotes.

On your advanced search page click 'More Options' and then you'll see the Title Phrase option again. Also the searching docs are here: http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual/?ch=c7881
Thanks Nicole

Hi all,
Is there a way to search for phrases in the Koha catalog, or to make Koha rank phrases higher than other search results by default? For example, if I search for "world book", in the expectation of finding World Book Encyclopedia, I get a vast number of search results (about 3,400), because the words "world" and "book" are apparently fairly common in my MARC records. I'm using 3.2 alpha with zebra, with approximately 350,000 records. There used to be a title phrase search option in the advanced search, but that doesn't seem to be there anymore.
Thanks! Cindy
