  1. Create or edit an Archive to enable Content Searches.

  2. Create a Search for the Archive, click Advanced, and in the Options group, enable Content Search Enabled. (Note that a Search must have at least one Index Field assigned, including Content Searches.)

  3. In the Content Search Options group that appears, optionally select one or more of the following:

    1. Phonics – Enable to use phonic (“sounds like”) searching.

    2. Fuzziness – Enable to allow for “degree of wrongness” allowed for search criteria. Enter a number (1 - 10) in the text box or use the arrows to increase or decrease the amount.  This number represents the number or allowable incorrect characters.  For example, a fuzziness of 1 would allow a search for "appple" to find the word "apple".

    3. Stemming – Stemming extends a search to cover grammatical variations on a word.  For example, a search for fish would also find fishing.

  4. Click Save.
