Partial single word search results should show results
When searching for part of a single word, return search results that would auto-complete that word.
Example: Searching "auto" should find ideas with "autocomplete" in the title.
Hi!
Search has been updated for better partial word matches. Search results will first do partial word matches on idea title then idea descriptions.
Thanks,

Great! Looking forward to going wild on searches :)
Currently it doesn't work for me... -

This is super annoying, if I search by "Nom" for example it will not return results like Nomination or any other partial string matches.

To take this one step further, while typing in the search box, a list of ideas should begin to populate in a dropdown to select from.
I believe apps like Elasticsearch provide this ability to index the parts of the site you want and allow for this functionality.

This would be fantastic, and totally think this is needed

Search behaviour is very strange sometimes.
I have recorded a screen capture to demonstrate this, but cannot add an attachment to a comment.

When User browses the ideas to select one for voting, s/he like to do a search by keywords. Sometimes s/he doesn't know the exact word form or word's ending, so it will be useful to have search by part of the word.
