(Spoiler alert: in replies to myself I found the answer. I'm still posting it here for future seekers.)

I could swear I posted this last night but maybe it was in a dream.

In the Pt Empowerment space I'm trying to find our successful proposals for Patient Contributed Data and for Patient Corrections. In the blue Confluence menu bar ...

  • I search "Corrections" and I see 2,447 hits.
  • In the Space menu I select our space, and it becomes 47 hits. OK.
  • I search for "proposal" in our space and get 22 hits.
  • But then I "corrections proposal" and I get 54 hits.
  • "corrections and proposal" also gets 54.
  • "corrections AND proposal" gets just 15.

Does all-caps-ing AND turn it into a Boolean??

(TRYing to help myself...) The Confluence Search Syntax page has a screen capture of capitalized AND but doesn't say anything about the operator itself.

On the search screen I see the Search Tips link.

But that page has nothing about OR / AND. However, it does point to Advanced Search -

And THAT page has the required Easter egg:

... which doesn't SAY it has to be all caps, but illustrates it that way.

This all feels rather "secrets from LOTR"-ish. :-)

I did get it figured out ... just as you posted that, I returned to top of thread and added that I'm leaving it here for future seekers.
