Hi everyone!

I will like to first say thanks for your great support and prompt answers.

We will like to change the normal search into a search using “like” in all text fields.

Some of our users are not able the search some opportunities or other things as well if they don’t enter the full name and sometimes the name can’t be fully remembered. So if we can search using “like”, we think it will be very helpful.

Thanks

You just need to tell your users to add a % character when they want a “like” search. For example, search for Elvis%

But if you want it by default it is configurable:
