Search vs. Keyword

Search vs. Keyword

n. While SEARCHES gather any ENTRIES or POSTS that contain an exact string of specified characters, KEYWORDS are a little different. One might view them as predefined SEARCHES, that likewise operate within a single given BLOG, yet which will yield a harvest of POSTS that may not or may not contain any particular matching word or phrase. Instead, the results will all deal with the same topic, issue or characteristic identified by the KEYWORD. In essence, you've gathered all POSTS tagged with a particular identifier (KEYWORD) chosen my the AUTHOR.

NOTE: Always keep in mind that regardless of whether its a classic SEARCH or a KEYWORD lookup, the scope of both operations is limited to the BLOG you're presently in.

Thus, to SEARCH or KEYWORD the entire collection of GLOSSARY ENTRIES, you have to be on the “ALL” (::) TAB. Otherwise, you'll only get a subset of the wider range of possible results.
