Search function

Our improved search function uses advanced semantic technology. It recognizes synonyms, various spellings, and corrects minor typos to provide you with more accurate results.

Advantages of the new search (from version 6.18) in Q.wiki at a glance:

• Structured content categories: Content is clearly organized into wiki content and additional modules.
• Quick preview: Instant result preview speeds up information retrieval.
• Content summaries: Each page offers a short, context-related summary.
• Keyboard shortcuts: Effective searching with simple key combinations.
