Description

NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

Implement a real substring search. It is not possible to place "*substring" search.
This is very annoying not to be able to find topics only because the searched term is started with a prefix (e.g. There is no chance to find a topic about WinCVS jsut by searching for "CVS" or "*CVS".

If it is not possible by default, why it cannot be enabled by some macro or optional plugin?

(Related terms to help with visibility: prefixed search, suffixed search, starts with)
