Exact match search on Zazzle

[almdrs]

I'm trying to find products in my store using an exact match search.

The search would be something like this: "Yellow flower on blue background"
And all the results would be "Yellow flower on blue background".

Not something like "yellow flower, "blue background",  "yellow background", etc.

Maybe it's something obvious but I haven't figured it out.

Which store are you searching (are you certain it has such a product)?

I tried your search "Yellow flower on blue background" in main marketplace and it came up with 21 perfect hits.

I tried in 3 of your stores and got nothing. Remember that all of the words in this specific order should come up first, with different arrangements of some of the words coming after (I'm almost positive).

I'm trying to find products that I have in my store. I have many producs that have the word flower, and I just want to be more specific when getting the search results.
I don't have anything called "Yellow flower on blue background". It was just an example.

On Google you can use quotation marks like this "Beautiful yellow sunflower" and you'll get exact matches in the results.

I too have always used quotes for an exact-phrase search but learned a while back that they don't play nice with Zazzle's search.

Here's a post I made reporting the issues with using quote marks and then trying to narrow by category.

And here's a thread from a few days later where I tested searching with quotes, parenthesis, plus signs and just spacing.

That was back in June, maybe search has been tweaked since then, I don't know, but I now steer clear of using quotes in Zazzle searches.

Thank you! I'll take a look.

Adding the plus sign between the words shows me what I was looking for:

If I had something called "Yellow Flower Decor" I could use "yellow+flower+decor".

That will eliminate results like "yellow star", "yellow rose", "flower decor" etc. and just show the exact match.

Thanks!

Wow - at least some of the Boolean search are working. I stopped trying the plus and minus signs years ago. Just now tried and the Plus sign (+) seems to work, but the minus sign (-) doesn't seem to eliminate a term from the results. I really miss the exact search that used to be available on computers, but now seems to have disappeared for the general result.
