For Admins that are looking to optimize the searchability of Module, Media and User Contribution Module content, we offer the following best practices:
- Search only returns strings of 3 characters or more.
- For acronyms, it’s recommended that its full meaning be added to the title or description so that learners can search using both formats.
- For content Admins want Users to find easily, include keywords that are commonly searched for in a Module’s, Media’s or User Contribution Module’s title since exact matches on title are prioritized.
