Iām on a phone at the moment. If I look at any post I can see a heart symbol that I can use to ālikeā the post. Next to that heart, thereās a ālinkā symbol that I can use for sharing the post and then there are three dots. If I press the three dots it expands to show a āflagā (if I want to flag the post to the moderators) and a bookmark symbol for bookmarking. Clicking that bookmark icon brings up a dialogue box.
Yes, thereās a search button on the main site. But Iāll just give a shout out to @karl_lew - the search king
If you are interested in keywords, a good place could be EBT-Site. This site has been developed on the basis of Voice.suttacentral.net, but has even more emphasis on keywords. The site is still under development and hasnāt been officially presented yet, but has perhaps grown to quite a good functionality.
Here you can find an overview on how to use the search function on EBT-Site.
@Vic in addition to what Anagarika Sabbamitta mentions, we also have a super command line tool for Linux folks. That tool is scv-bilara.
The scv-bilara search engine does more than both Voice and EBT-Site, but it requires a Linux command line. Voice and EBT-Site both use scv-bilara for arbitrary keyword and phrase searches. Over time, however, we hope to build up the key phrase dictionary that informs both Voice and EBT-Sites so that all can benefit from these āDhamma gemsā. In fact, if you want to help us find key phrases, please feel free to nominate your favorite phrase if it isnāt already in EBT-Site or Voice.
However, for an academically thorough search, I would rely on SuttaCentralās very own tremendous search capability. The Voice, EBT-Site and scv-bilara applications are only informed by segmented translations and are not academically complete.
Ahhh I was wondering where all the āphrasesā were going
It looks great, and thanks for adding the link to the overview.
It might be worthwhile to have a thread dedicated to this on its own, so that it can be a handy resource and reference place with regard to these sites.
