Multiple Fields Search in Bookpedia

Post by phule92 »

Is it possible to search multiple fields (2 or more) of a collection in Bookpedia? For example, search for all crime novels (genre) by the author John Smith. If this is possible, how is it done :?:

If it is an 'and' search as in 'all books by John Smith that also have the genre crime' then you can simply type "John Smith Crime" into the search field in Bookpedia and the results will be filtered accordingly. (Make sure you have selected 'All fields' or 'Columns shown' from the little magnifying glass, depending on which one is applicable in your set up.)

If it's a more complicated search than that, such as 'books by John Smith or crime', you could create a smart collection with the exact criteria.
