First I want to say thank you so much for trying to improve searches in the stash. It’s got some shortcomings at the moment, but knowing EHG, you’ll get it working in time.
I’m not sure this is a “bug” so much as a shortcoming of how the new regex search works. I’ve seen people asking in various other topics if there’s a way to search for an item that has “this term AND this other term”. I think it’s working to an extent, but not in a very useful way.
I can perform the following search and it will find Tu’rani’s Bident just fine:
/bleed.*jav/
(for anyone else trying to read this, it’s looking for anything that has “bleed”, followed by anything else, and then has “jav”)
This works, because Tu’rani’s Bident has a single attribute on it that contains both search terms:
If you try a similar search, but across two different attributes:
/bleed.*pen/
Despite having “pen” in two different attributes below it, it doesn’t find Tu’Rani’s Bident because the search terms aren’t contained in a single attribute.
Also, if you decide to stick with regex searches, we could really use more characters in the search box; regex searches can get rather large, rather quickly…
