How can I perform an "and" search on the Apple Developer Forum?

Typing multiple words in the Search box on Apple Developer Forums results in an "Or" search, just adding the results for both words together.

Is there a way to do an "and" search instead of an "or" search?

For example... searching on "appgroup" returns 86 results... searching on "catalyst" returns "860" results... searching on "catalyst appgroup" or "catalyst + appgroup" or "catalyst and appgroup" all return 946 results...

I want the intersection, not the union of these two result sets as I really don't want to always look through my smallest set and manually search for my second search term.

No. Any result containing both terms should be considered more relevant, and hence bubble to the top when you sort by relevance, but there’s no way to only show those results.

I encourage you to file an enhancement request for this feature. Please post your bug number, just for the record.

I fear there is little to do…
I've tried many combinations with no avail; always 950 results found:
appgroup && catalyst
appgroup AND catalyst
appgroup .AND. catalyst
appgroup | catalyst (in case pipes worked)
appgroup, catalyst

That was already the case in older forum:
