Is that possible? I'm finding that my Search Fu is severely ****** on D&D Beyond, to the point that I find myself getting frustrated. I see that I can search for a term w/in certain broad categories, but what about within just 1 or 2 books? Is there a way to do so other than doing a CTRL+F on each Chapter??
Use google and start with dndbeyond as a keyword. Far more useful than getting a list of adventures that use the rule that you're looking for.
If you start your search terms with "site:www.dndbeyond.com", google will only search through the dndbeyond domain.
Search on DDB works poorly because of the way the sources are created digitally. The books aren't recreated as a single source, but as a number of separate chapters. Because of that, it's not possible to target one entire book, but only that book, with a search. I don't know DDB's code, but I doubt there's a way to fix this without recreating all of the books.

That was a big help, thank you!
Is there a place where this feature could be requested? It's 2021 - I should be able to select the specific source book to refine my search.
Agreed! Searching within a specific source book would be super helpful. Or at least being able to filter it in the results page!
