SUMMARY
Let's say I have a folder somewhere on my hard drive called linux_iso_2003 and I search linux 2003. No results. That's strange. If I search linux I get the result but let's say I have thousands of these folders. It sure would be nice for linux 2003 to show linux_iso_2003 instead of having to search linux and scrolling through thousands of results. This is so basic that I feel second-hand embarrassment for whoever made the Dolphin search feature.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make a folder called linux_iso_2003
2. Use Dolphin and search for linux 2003

OBSERVED RESULT
No result

EXPECTED RESULT
linux_iso_2003 should be a result when linux 2003 is search for. This is extremely basic stuff not rocket science.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Kubuntu 20.04

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
lol

Life pro tip: insulting the creative output of people from whom who you are requesting unpaid work is not the most effective communication strategy. :) Let's try to keep it professional so we can focus on the problem itself rather than riling up developers with a thinner skin than me and causing a fight that derails the technical discussion.


Can you confirm that it does (eventually) find your folder if you search for "linux_iso_2003", "linux", or "2003"?
