copy pasted words do not register in search.

    I have noticed another inconsistency with search results.

    We have a post “Nexus 4 Big City”
    I copy and paste Big City into the search frield, hit search.
    Nothing.

    I then type Big City out with the keyboard, hit search.
    Results found.

    There are no extra spaces nothing. The search term is copied from email, and pasted on to the site and it wont work unless you type it out.

    Just one last thing, is it intended to put dashes in quoted searches?
    For example “Big City” will yield \”big city\” so if you want to add to that keyword, it wont work or just make it \\\”big city\\\” etc.

    Thanks

    Turns out text copied from Gmail are not formatted. I found this out when copy and pasting reply emails and it said that the address is not supported due to the characters, while everything was OK.

    After i paste into notepad, and re-copy and paste it works.

    Also the auto fill of the wrongly encoded text that i copy pops up and the words are all compressed and indent, showing me its not formatted.
    Not sure how to fix it, but not this plugin’s issue.
