Notice: CMSB v2.60 Beta 1 (Jan 30, 2014)

Hi. I would be interested in better understanding the new search feature defined as:
"OR searches in the CMS and all viewers, you can now show results that match ("one thing" OR "another"), not just exact matches"

I learn best by a code example, if that can be provided.

Thanks in advance.

And probably the most common example would be a multiple value list field or multiple checkboxes.  

Here's some examples of those:

<form action="?" method="get">
  Show records from division(s):<br/>
  A <input type="checkbox" name="division_match[]" value="A">
  B <input type="checkbox" name="division_match[]" value="B">
  C <input type="checkbox" name="division_match[]" value="C">
  D <input type="checkbox" name="division_match[]" value="D">
  E <input type="checkbox" name="division_match[]" value="E"><br/><br/>
  
  Show members from countries (hold ctrl to select multiple):<br/>
  <select name="country_match[]" multiple="multiple" size="5">
  <option>Canada</option>
  <option>USA</option>
  <option>UK</option>
  </select><br/><br/>
  
  <input type="submit" />
</form>

Dave,

I much appreciate your provided examples and explanations.There's a couple of website applications I have in mind that I could use this with and can't wait to test it out on my own.

HI Dave

here is a speed test run from our server using v2.60

Hi All, 

Thanks for your feedback.  I've released v2.60 final.  Here's the updated changelog items since the last beta.  

- Admin Backup: These log tables are now skipped during backup: _outgoing_mail, _cron_log (can be overridden with plugin filter backupDatabase_skippedTables)
- CMS Menus: Image preview thumbnails are now limited in height so extremely tall images don't make page too long
- CMS Menus: Dates on list pages now display in whatever format is specified under: Admin > General > Regional Settings
- Compatibility: Fixed PHP 5.5 warning: Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated
- Images: Using new faster image resizing code by default
- Security: Disabled autocomplete on login username and password fields so sensitive data won't be remembered in browser
- Viewers: whereRecordNumberInUrl() now ignores Google AdWords auto-tagging values (gclid) when determining record numbers
