Answered Partial word search improvement

[RandyB]

@Neal. I've been using the search function and have found something you may want to look into. It involves a partial word search. For example: I recently posted a thread with the word "homophones" in the title and the body. Upon searching (for everywhere), the search engine finds no results until the entire word is nearly typed in.
Homo = no results.
Homop = no results.
Homoph = no results.
Homopho = no results.
Homophon = hit.
Homophone = hit.
Homophones = hit.
It would seem that searching for a partial word as short as homo, in this case, would hit on something.

Try using * as a wildcard

homo*

The wildcard * works great. Thanks for the tip @Neal.
