Keyword Search
You can use this box to enter a single keyword or several keywords to search on, avoid using punctuation marks as it may confuse the search.
Choosing one of the following options from the drop-down list at the end of the search by keywords box allows you to make your search more accurate.
AND - searches for records that contain all of the keywords that you entered anywhere in the text.
MATCHES - searches for records that contain the exact phrase as you entered it.
OR - searches for records that contain any of your keywords anywhere in the text.
The search will not include the notes field as this contains lots of text and may appear to bring up images seemingly unconnected with your search. However, if you wish to include this field in your search place a tick in the ‘ Search all text fields ' box.
Search by Place
This allows you to search for images of a particular town, village or place by selecting from a drop-down list. Large towns like.........
You can combine a keyword search with a ‘Search by Place' to look for certain keywords within a particular town or village. For example if you wanted to look for all the tram pictures you can type the word tram in the keywords search box and click search, this will bring up several thousand images. However you might want to see just the pictures of trams in ........ so you can select ....... from the drop-down list.
