Hi,

Got it. I upvoted. I will alert the docs team to this request.

Yes, that is the correct way to search help.

 

Kevin,

 

edit58989569 was not looking for a way to search "Help", he was looking for a way to search "the Premiere Pro User Guide online."

 

You could interpret the proposed workarounds as adequate, or you could imagine than an easy, direct search limted to (and tuned to) the guide would be better and desirable.

Excellent tip!

 

Just adding "adobe premiere pro helpx" to the search should bring top results from the online user guide.

This also works for "adobe after effects helpx", "adobe photoshop helpx", "adobe illustrator helpx", etc.

 

The best part is it puts the YouTube results further down the results list which are, at best, hit or miss.

@edit58989569,

 

Upvoted. I would also like to see more powerful search of just the helpx documents. But it has been improved. For example, go to the page you list, click in the search box at the top (which does say "Search Adobe Support"), and enter some search words. (I just used "mask.") The results page is filtered to Premiere Pro, and there are tabs over the right side. For me, these defaulted to "Support" and all links were to helpx/premiere pro. I have never gotten results that relevant.

 

More complicated searches may not get any relevant results.

 

I often get better results by googling:

site:https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/

and adding words after that.

 

Stan

It would be cool we could search the user guide seperately 🙂
