The site search can’t find “OKR” or “OKRs”. The Forum search can! Has it got some sort of config to not allow short words? Maybe there is an allowlist you can configure to add some other terms?

Ugh, yes — the built-in Ghost search only tracks post titles and post descriptions.

We’re going to need to fix this. I actually had a bunch of site improvements planned for Q4 2024, but I messed up on the case production side and basically had to focus on writing cases and pieces (instead of commissioning cases and editing, which leaves me time to code). I’m going to take a break after next week’s piece, and will plan for those site improvements — which are focused on discoverability — in Q1 next year.

Thank you for your feedback!

> Hi everyone! Search just got a lot better. You can now search across the full text of Commoncog posts and cases, instead of only titles and excerpts. So if, like me, you’ve ever wondered, “uh, which post talks about Lancaster Caramel?”, search should help you find it in seconds. [CleanShot 2026-07-17 at 23.54.42]

Wow didn’t realize it was almost 2 years ago! Glad that we eventually get to it 😄
