How to search Crossword Tracker efficiently

Imagine your clue is "Healing balm" and its answer is 4 letters long. You know the last two letters are OE.

To search properly, type ??OE in the answer box. The question marks serve as placeholders for letters that you don't know. If you hit submit, you'll see ALOE as the top hit when the search returns.

Since there are a lot of four letter answers that end in OE (OBOE, SHOE, etc), you'll almost always want to provide some of the clue. While still typing ??OE in the answer box, try providing a keyword from the clue (say, "balm") into the clue box. This time you end up directly on the answer's page.

You can enter the exact clue, but a keyword or two usually provides better results.
