The Modern Search behaves the same as the Modern 404, showing searches for individual words if no results are found for a search query.
Customizing search results
The search results are generated using the core WordPress algorithm and WordPress does not provide options to customize this.
Search result customization requires programming, is full of issues, and far outside the scope of what we can offer.
SearchWP is one solution, but creates massive database tables that can create performance problems. We do not recommend it.
Conflicts
Any plugin that modifies, excludes, or hides posts in WordPress can create conflicts with the FSRI block, which is used on all posts and pages.
We can not offer support or troubleshooting when a plugin is installed that modifies the core WordPress search.
