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

      Problem Definition

      As a Confluence admin, I would like the Livesearch Macro's autocomplete to suggest results after a couple of letters and not after typing the first word of my search.

      Example:
      1. Create a test space named TEST
      2. Create a parent root page called Contacts
      3. Create various sub-pages under the Contacts page with names
        • UserA Test, UserB Test, UserC Test and add a label named contactlabel
      4. Add a Livesearch macro to the root page Contacts
      5. Use the Restrict to this Space Key property to restrict it to the current space
      6. Use the Restrict to label(s) property to restrict it to the contactlabel label.
      7. Go to the Contacts page and search for UserA Test
      8. Notice the suggestion only comes up after typing the compete first word UserA. This can be misleading as end user's believe there are no results when typing only the first couple of letters (e.g. Use)

      Suggested Solution

      Suggested results may be displayed after typing the first few letters of the search term and not the first complete word.
