The general pattern with SQLite search is to run the search as a sub-select that returns rowid values, then include those rowids in another part of the query. \n             You can see the syntax for a basic search by running that search on a table page and then clicking \"View and edit SQL\" to see the underlying SQL. For example, consider this search for  manafort is the US FARA database : \n             /fara/FARA_All_ShortForms?_search=manafort \n             If you click  View and edit SQL  you'll see that the underlying SQL looks like this: \n             select\n  rowid,\n  Short_Form_Termination_Date,\n  Short_Form_Date,\n  Short_Form_Last_Name,\n  Short_Form_First_Name,\n  Registration_Number,\n  Registration_Date,\n  Registrant_Name,\n  Address_1,\n  Address_2,\n  City,\n  State,\n  Zip\nfrom\n  FARA_All_ShortForms\nwhere\n  rowid in (\n    select\n      rowid\n    from\n      FARA_All_ShortForms_fts\n    where\n      FARA_All_ShortForms_fts match escape_fts(:search)\n  )\norder by\n  rowid\nlimit\n  101", "breadcrumbs": "[\"Full-text search\"]", "references": "[{\"href\": \"https://fara.datasettes.com/fara/FARA_All_ShortForms?_search=manafort\", \"label\": \"manafort is the US FARA database\"}, {\"href\": \"https://fara.datasettes.com/fara?sql=select%0D%0A++rowid%2C%0D%0A++Short_Form_Termination_Date%2C%0D%0A++Short_Form_Date%2C%0D%0A++Short_Form_Last_Name%2C%0D%0A++Short_Form_First_Name%2C%0D%0A++Registration_Number%2C%0D%0A++Registration_Date%2C%0D%0A++Registrant_Name%2C%0D%0A++Address_1%2C%0D%0A++Address_2%2C%0D%0A++City%2C%0D%0A++State%2C%0D%0A++Zip%0D%0Afrom%0D%0A++FARA_All_ShortForms%0D%0Awhere%0D%0A++rowid+in+%28%0D%0A++++select%0D%0A++++++rowid%0D%0A++++from%0D%0A++++++FARA_All_ShortForms_fts%0D%0A++++where%0D%0A++++++FARA_All_ShortForms_fts+match+escape_fts%28%3Asearch%29%0D%0A++%29%0D%0Aorder+by%0D%0A++rowid%0D%0Alimit%0D%0A++101&search=manafort\", \"label\": \"View and edit SQL\"}]"}
