I have a question about the search feature on CP:
I want to find any messages that contain more than one word, but they don't have to be together.
So as an example, let's use my CCC thread for today. I wan't to search words "CCC" and "Malevolent". In this case I would get a result of Super's post which contains "CCC" in the subject, and "Malevolent" in the message body.
Is that possible?
Just to be clear, if I search "CCC malevolent" then I do get the macth I want, but I don't want to see the mactches for other "CCC" that don't contain "malevolent". So I am looking for some sort of AND query function.

It looks like you found it 
AND is by default. Go on the code project front page and click on the blue button "Search our articles" on the top right, you'll end up on the search page with a popup tooltip explaining the keywords.

I tried + and &, but didn't think to try AND.
Thanks anyway, seems to do what I desire!

OR, you could google: site:codeproject.com ccc malevolent

Ouch, that posts just really disappointed the search hamster. He was so proud of his active part on the website.

I always thought the search hamster got his appointment because he's the second cousin to the db hamster, but he's mostly slacking and smoking together with the reputation points hamster.

CP search is pretty much unusable.

Actually, the 'instructions' are slightly outdated. "CCC malevolent" will do an or search but results with higher relevance, such as having both terms will be listed first.
There are two ways to accomplish the search you want:
- "CCC AND malevolent" as explained by someone else
- "+CCC +malevolent" where the '+' denotes a required term. Note: '-' denotes a must not include term.
Basically, this is a Lucene Query, so the Lucene Query syntax applies. Apache Lucene - Query Parser Syntax

I have been nominated? For what? Do I get to be a prince in Nigeria? The entry test probably is to get hold of your royal funds with the help of random people you may contact by mail.

They try to flatter my ego and you feel insulted? That's cool. I now have my own coninsultant.

I think they meant "2018 EU Phishing Awards"

Just out of curiosity, do you enjoy working for (Company)? I'm guessing the work experience is a bit generic.

I would take a look at the page source and see what that click really does. I would not be surprised if it is something nefarious.

No matter if you accept or decline, you will get the award for the sucker of the hour.

Funny how they managed to forget to include the most used option in the list:
