After one have written enough and/or have not written for a long time, the search functionality can be useful to find your writings. The occurrence of a search term is highlighted in both the headings and the body text of search results. Around the occurrence of the search term, some text from related writing is shown before and after it. The writings that appear in the search results are linked primarily to the text editing view. If a writing has been published, a link to it will also be available. These links can also be useful when making redirectlink writings.

The limitation of searching the text of a writing is that the search is currently limited to the HTML version of the text, meaning that styling that is made to the text might cause something to be not found even if it appears to be in the text.

In this view, you can initialise a search by adding the parameter "seachquery" to the url and giving it a search criterion. If the search criterion begins with "author:", it is assumed that the text following it refers to an authorid. These are created in the Authors section of the user preferences, which is an experimental feature. Writing finding groups are first created in a separate view and can then be selected to list preselected writings in a project-independent way (requires experimental features mode to be turned on).

Searchability of the names of the image containers may become useful when there are already several dozens of image containers. It is also possible to search for the names of adequates, and separately for the adequate items. Writings can also be searched using writing collection id (e.g. writingcollectionid:2555). For writing finding group descriptions there's three additional functions, two of which allows to list related writings in either the slicedtextediting view or the lotsoftextediting view. The third generates a printable webpage combining all its writings and where image data is embedded within the webpage.
