Projects with Special Characters Don't' Appear In @ Mention

neekubee

Searching titles with special characters such as "To-Do" having a hyphen, will lead to the result saying "No results" despite being able to mention it if just searching "To"

Fail to search project name

douglas.sia

Unable to search project name with a dash '-' 
e.g. 2215-465 Project A
I have higher chance to search project with '2215' but not when adding the dash '2215-'

Thanks douglas.sia we will investigate this. Are you specifically using taskade.com/search or the CMD + K quick search as well?

John at Taskade: Yes, that is correct.

John at Taskade: Also, while taskade is on this, following is another example of a project I failed to search in Taskade.
Project Name: A2215-465 
Search term used in ctrl +K: 2215 465
What I'm expecting is Taskade is to find the nearest possible project file which contains 2215 and 465 at least. This would be useful as I have many project named A2215-465, B2215-465, CR2215-165 etc.
By searching 2215 465 or 2215-465 I'm hoping to find all the relevant job and revision. 
Thanks

douglas.sia: Appreciate the clarification!
