      Hi,

      do there exists any plans or plugins (by yourself or third party of which you know; commercial or free) for a more complex search? We already evaluated http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFEXT/Advanced+Search+Plugin but this isn't what we're looking for.

      We need several improvements of the current search:

      • searching a subtree within a space (a single page and recursivly all it's childrens)
      • searching for a specific time period. (not just last X days, but something like "from 10-10-2006 to 10-12-2006"

      Any hint appreciated.
      Regards
      Markus

            Thank you for raising this issue. While we can see how this feature would be useful, we have no plans to implement it in the foreseeable future. In order to set expectations, we're closing this request now.

            Thanks again for your idea.

            It would be very useful if Confluence Search would allow the user EXCLUDE a word or expression from search results.

            Markus, regarding your first requirement, I think the Pagetree Search plugin may help you.

            We have even already bought confluence, but are having a hard time figuring out how some of our twiki %SEARCH page compositions will be able to be done.

            our serach look like the following

            Iteration Dates From To Total Remaining Est. Velocity Actual

            %SEARCH

            { "IPLProj.*[1234567890]$" scope="topic" regex="on" nosearch="on" nototal="on" order="topic" format="| [[$topic]] | $pattern(.*?\!-- Details --.\s*([^\n\r]+).*)"}

            %

            i.e we are searching for pages (topics) with a certain title ...
            "IPLProj.*[1234567890]$" (note the regular expression)
            And displaying a particularly marked up line within that topic ...
            .?!-- Details --.\s([^\n\r]+).*

            Can we get anywhere close with confluence?
