If the search feature is enabled and you assign the search box module to the left or right side bar, you will see a search box where that you can use to search content in Tiki. The search box will display a select box allowing you to search for a word in:
Once you select a feature and click the search button you will be redirected to the searchresults page :

In this screen you will see a list of results for the search. The links below the title can be used to search in different areas of Tiki--such as pages, galleries, images, blogs, posts or articles. If there are a lot of results you will see links to the next/prev pages at the bottom. The number of items where the search criteria was found can be located just below the links to search different features.
This integrated search engine is very useful to quick-find content or information in Tiki and it will automatically detect which features/sections are enabled or disabled admiting the search only in enabled features. If you disable the Wiki, for example, you won't be able to find things in Wiki pages.
If you want, you can enable full-text search. With this option your results will be ordered according to their relevance to the search terms.
The search can be configured by the administrator as a simple search or as a full text search.
If the administrator has not activated the "full-text" feature, the search is done in a very simple way.
Each query is split into words (a word is recognized as delimitated by space). An object will be returned only if it contains each string word.
Example: If the query is "full text", only the object that contains "full" and that contains "text" will be returned.
Be careful that it is not "contains the word" but contains the string; it means that an object with "fulltext" will be returned, as an object with "faithfully textual" or "carefull texture".
Be also careful that an object has some hidden text like the links. So, an object that contains "http://fulltext/|Mysite" is selected.
The search is performed in case-insensitive fashion. It means that if you look for "tiki", you will find objects than contain the word "Tiki" and not "tiki".
Advantages:
Disadvantages:
The Full-text Search is based on the MySql full-text search functionality.
Some restrictions apply:
The search is performed in case-insensitive fashion.
The query is split into words: a word is a sequence of alphanumeric characters and "_" characters. Some words are eliminated (those from a stop list and those too short).
The results are sorted with highest relevance first. Relevance is computed based on the number of words in the object, the number of unique words in that object, the total number of words in the collection, and the number of objects that contain a particular word. This way, a word that is present in many documents will have lower weight (and may even have a zero weight), because it has lower semantic value in this particular collection
It is also possible to perform a boolean mode search :
