## Search Features and Configuration

* **Search Scope:** Users can search across all accessible knowledge bases or select specific ones. Pinned articles appear only from the chosen knowledge base and language.
* **Filtering Options:** Results can be refined by knowledge bases, categories, authors, and language. Categories are listed alphabetically to simplify selection.
* **Attachment Display:** Attachments linked to articles can appear as text snippets, links only, or be hidden. Displaying attachments as text snippets may impact search performance.
* **Wildcard Searches:** Wildcard support can be enabled via the Contextual Search settings, allowing more flexible search queries.
* **Sorting:** Search results can be sorted by relevancy, most recent update, or number of views to help users find the most useful content quickly.
