    Hi,
    I was wondering if it is possible to make the main search filed less specific, for example if somebody doesn’t know there is a ‘ in a name it will still locate it, I tried one listing on our site
    searching Munchies did not pull up the listing Munchie’s. I guess what I am asking is there a way to remove these ‘grammar marks’ as required in the searches?

    Hello,

    We have considered alternatives but none of them work well.

    The workaround we recommend is to add the Title with the special character, and then add a tag to the listing without the special characters.

    Search will look through titles and tags, so one or the other will get your listing revealed in search.

    Let us know how it goes
