Forum:Can "intitle" searches be activated on my wiki?

Can "intitle:" searches be activated on my wiki?

For example; in Wikipedia here is an intitle search of the template namespace:

searching for "UK" in the text of templates with "Wales" in the title.

Please go to the bottom of the search results page to see that the template namespace has a checkmark in the box.

I intend to put some basic yearly city lists (one city per line) on separate pages. I need the intitle function activated in order to be able to search all pages with "city list" in the title.

This way people can search for a particular city, and see right away which year pages the city is on, and thus which years that city signed up for that event.

I don't necessarily need the intitle search to only search one particular namespace, but it needs to only search on one wikia wiki.

I tried to figure out a way to do this with Google search, but with no luck.

Google's "allintitle:" search combined with its "site:" search pulls up pages on a site that have the search words in the title. It does not also allow the text on those pages to be searched at the same time.

For example; here are some Google allintitle searches below of the wiki I mainly work on. They search for the title words listed here:
 * city list
 * graphics
 * GMM

Note that when one tries to add search terms to try to search the text, then there are no search results.

With hundreds of cities per year lately for this particular event it would take far too long to make a 12-year participation table with around 600 cities down the left side of the table, and the years listed across the top.

So instead I can put the Wikia intitle search links in the existing templates on the around 600 existing city pages. This is better than just referring them to a table someday (probably never) on a separate page. --Timeshifter 03:00, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
