Page Properties does sub string matches instead of exact ones.

      Issue Summary

      The Page Properties Report macro’s “Contains Text” filter performs substring matching rather than exact matching, even when search terms are enclosed in quotes. 

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create 2–3 pages, each containing the Content Properties macro and assign a common label to these pages.
      2. On each page, add content with similar words that differ slightly in spelling (see example screenshot below). 
      3. On a separate page, insert the Content Properties Report macro.
      4. Configure the macro to report on the pages with the specified label.
      5. Add an additional filter using the “Contains Text” option.
      6. Enter your search term in quotes (e.g., "example").

      Expected Results

      When a search term is enclosed in quotes, the macro should return only results that exactly match the quoted string.

      Actual Results

      The macro returns results that contain the search term as a substring, not just exact matches—even when quotes are used.

      Workaround

      There is currently no known workaround for this behavior. This section will be updated if a workaround becomes available.
