EXACT

vickyg2003

Right now there is a General EXACT criteria on the search screen. It currently does NOTHING

Instead of trying to get the general EXACT criteria to work, which I believ should be handled by just returning the most relevant results first, I'd like a return of the EXACT on individual fields like surname, or place. Sometimes I know EXACTLY where a person lived, but have no idea how their name is going to be spelled, other times I know EXACTLY how the name is spelled, but they moved around a lot.

This is how the old search worked and it was fabulous.

@vickyg2003 I've tried to make a technical point about the incorrect behaviour of the exact search here. https://community.familysearch.org/en/discussion/106357/improve-correct-exact-search-engine-matching#latest
