      Problem Definition

      As a Confluence user I would like to use the search functionality to return a snippet of a text that has an anchor, so that I can easily find content.

      Suggested Solution

      Allow Confluence search to include anchor results in the CONTAINS() or contentBody functions.

      E.g.:

      macroName:anchor AND CONTAINS("anchorName")

      OR

      macroName:anchor AND contentBody("anchorName")

      Workaround

      As for now, a user can only search for the macroName and text in the link.

            I recommend to make the user workflow even more efficient, as follows:

            After searching for any string, upon the user selecting a page from the search result Confluence should zoom into the location on the page where the search string was found.
