IMSLP Forums

I know when you search any score, composer or category in general the site, by default, redirects you in a Google search that is like this: https://www.google.com/search?q=site:im ... cz%20Op.16

However, someday I discovered that you can search directly from the site without using the Google search but I can't remember how I can do that;, if anyone knows tell me, please, how to do that. Also, as important fact, I didn't discovered that feature in the Clara version but in the Wiki version. Thanks!

Go to Special:Preferences and the Gadgets section, and tick "Use MediaWiki Search Engine".

Interesting! I wasn't aware of that setting.

Normally if I want to do an internal search of the wiki, I go to Special:SpecialPages -> Search, but making the top search bar a shortcut to that is definitely convenient. However, note that enabling that setting appears to break the "IMSLP#" searches...

For the IMSLP index number searches, I generally use the direct link at https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ReverseLookup/[index number], replacing [index number] with the internal reference number of the file you want to search for. This is the number after the # below the file description on work pages.

Ohh! Thanks so much, this will be so helpful for me.
