</h2>
70 <p>Use the
<code>Search text
</code> field to search in
<em>any
</em> of the fields of all links (Title, URL, Description...)
</p>
71 <p><strong>Exclude text/tags:
</strong> Use the
<code>-
</code> operator before a word or tag (example
<code>-uninteresting
</code>) to prevent entries containing (or tagged)
<code>uninteresting
</code> from showing up in the search results.
</p>
72 <p><strong>Exact text search:
</strong> Use double-quotes (example
<code>"exact search
"</code>) to search for the exact expression.
</p>
73 <p>Both exclude patterns and exact searches can be combined with normal searches (example
<code>"exact search
" term otherterm -notthis
"very exact
" stuff -notagain
</code>)
</p>
74 <h2 id=
"tags-search">Tags search
</h2>
75 <p>Use the
<code>Filter by tags
</code> field to restrict displayed links to entries tagged with one or multiple tags (use space to separate tags).
</p>
76 <p><strong>Hidden tags:
</strong> Tags starting with a dot
<code>.
</code> (example
<code>.secret
</code>) are private. They can only be seen and searched when logged in.
</p>
77 <p>Alternatively you can use the
<code>Tag cloud
</code> to discover all tags and click on any of them to display related links.
</p>

</h2>
79 <p>RSS feeds can also be restricted to only return items matching a text/tag search: see
