Searching on the 'series' field in Bookpedia

Post by TVGuy »

Hello, folks

When I am searching my book library for all the titles in a particular series, I get no result. In other words, I type 'James Bond' into the search box. Theoretically, all the books that have the series field title 'James Bond Series' should pop up in the window, right?

But no. Nothing appears. (it works in Delicious Library -- NOT THAT I"M A FAN, heaven's no. Just some inspiration)

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.

Make sure you have selected the search filter 'All Fields' or if you have the Series field selected in your table view 'Columns shown'. (You can choose the different filters by clicking on the little magnifying glass in the search field.)

Thanks, Nora.

That did it. It should have been obvious that one should click on the little magnifying glass to get more search filters. Sadly, I was not aware that this was a pretty standard Mac feature.

But now it makes perfect sense. Thanks for taking the time to explain.
