Guild Wars 2

The sidebar lists headed by Current Transactions and History (also reached via My Transactions) and searches for items in your inventory (Sell Items) do NOT support partial word matching like the search function applied to Buy Items which searches the TP item database.

I think it’s considered poor form to be inconsistent because it introduces erroneous or misleading information when users forget one search does support partial words and others don’t.

For example, if I search for “migh appr” in my Current/History lists, I won’t get any returns even if I have 100 bids/listings for “mighty apprentice” gear. Conversely, if I apply that search to the main database via Buy Items, it will return proper listings.

It’s easy to see how this inconsistency can cause problems for users.

Obvious fix is to make partial word search global to all lists.
