    Singular Vs Plural

    I am wondering if there are plans to equip the Zoom Search tool with the ability to better handle singular to plural translations when searching. Its tedious to use synonyms for each word, and the substring setting returns way to many irrelevant topics when enabled.

    For example: I have a keyword of "projectors" on my page. If you search under "projector" it doesnt return any pages OR offer "projectors" as a suggestion (it grabs existing words "project", and "projects" in the page like its supposed to).

    I am guessing this is harder to do than I think, as English isn't always logical when switching from singluar to plural (e.g "goose" to "geese").

    Yes this is harder to do that it first appears (especially for non English languages). There is a discussion on the singular to plural subject here.
