Improvements in the search functionality and ability to save private views for every user

We have released multiple improvements in the Search functionality such as the ability to:

  • Combine search filters with the "search pills" mechanism.
  • Perform negative searches, like "all entries with field that doesn't equal X value".
  • Perform fuzzy searches in short text fields in case you want to filter entries that share a specific naming convention.
  • Search by references, like getting all the products of a category.

New search pills

Also, every user is now able to save a search for future use as a private saved view. This feature was previously available only to space admins.
