Search with a placeholder * ?

faceratz says:
Hey,

how is it possible to search with a placeholder? (like Google with *; e.g. I want to search for tags:mar and mai, but I search for tag: ma*. In google that works, but how does that work in RTM?

The reason I need this is that I tag all tasks I need to do in a Sprint with sp1, sp2, sp3, etc. but all private things are untagged or with a private tag. As the project sprint numbers are increasing all the time, I dont want to change the seach query for my private query list all the time by changing from sp1 to sp2 to sp 3, etc.

Thanks for your help!

Hi duckdagobert,
We don't offer wildcard searching currently, sorry. However, you can use the tagContains search operator for this. To continue your example:

tagContains:"sp"

would search all your tags like sp1, sp2, etc.

You can see all the search operators on our advanced search page.

Hope this helps!
