Standard Search

The standard still search contains a combo box, a check box, and a drop-list. The first search field searches the image Description, Country and City and the person’s first and last name. The Keyword drop-list sets a selected keyword that searches the Image information Keywords field.

Advanced Search

As with Standard search, Advanced search is capable of doing simple searches. In addition, searches can be refined by using more than one search criteria.

• Keyword: Use multiple keywords for a more precise search with an unlimited number of keywords selected.

• Country and City: Country and City corresponds to the drop-down list and text field used when registering Image information.

• Dates: Clicking on the arrow opens a calendar where dates can be selected. There are two check boxes for dates for searches based on dates in three different ways.

  • If only the first check box is selected, a search will be made for images from the selected date to the present date.

  • If only the second check box is selected, a search will be made for images from before the selected date.

  • By selecting both check boxes, a search will be made for images within the selected dates.

• Must have all keywords: Select this option to show hits that contain all the selected keywords.

• Portraits only: Set the search to only search for images set as portraits linked to a person (see Person Information).

• Additional fields: Adds customized additional fields with the option of adding a search criteria. Clicking Add adds the customized search to the standard search field.
