Underscore in search is not recognized as a delimiter

[max13fr]

Describe the bug

Hello,

Firstly, Sync-in looks really promising, well done !

I'm having a problem with the global file search, which isn't very useful as it stands: searching by filename only seems to work if you type the beginning of the word, not the middle.

For example, I have a file named "2026-04-15_bill_myclient.pdf". If I search for "bill" or "myclient", the file isn't found. I have to search for "2026" for the file to appear.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,

Regards

PS: A tool that could be very useful for searching is Meilisearch (https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch). It allows you to handle typos, sort results by relevance, etc.

Hi @max13fr,
_ is recognized as a character rather than a delimiter, and since the search is keyword-based, it does not work in this case. However, if - is used as a delimiter, it works correctly.

Thanks for your reply.

Underscores are frequently used to replace spaces, why doesn't add it as delimiter ?

Best regards
