The search function in knowledge base is not matching multi-word phrases. For example, “Blue bicycle” will return several articles containing the work “bicycle” only.

If I search only “Blue”, then I get all the articles with “blue”.

The search should find matches for the whole phrase first, and then parts of the phrase starting with the first word.
