Ιακοβ Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Hi guys, When I search for journal articles that use a specific verse, often I will get hundreds of irrelevant wider references. For example, if you search "Mark 14:51", the results include mostly things like "Mark 11-16" Is there a trick to work around this problem? it seems like one useful article gets buried within 99 useless articles. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Mansfield Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Use = (exact form) before the reference. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ιακοβ Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) I have to say, after using the = function for a few days with the Journal search, this tiny little equals sign makes the difference between a thousand mostly useless results, and 10 mostly useful results! Using the equals sign is so beneficial to the Journal search, that its transformed the journal search task from one that I hate and avoid where possible, to now being one of the first things I will try when attempting to deal with a question of the text. (And creates enough value in this feature that I need to try and buy some of the other journal modules) Edited May 19, 2016 by Ιακοβ 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Allison Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 That is a good tip. I didn't realize it applied to scripture searches either! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
