Way to search for c++ documentation without blueprint docs coming up

Hi,

Does anyone know why when you search for c++ documentation from google, putting “C++” in quotes to make sure it only returns c++ documentation - you end up with ALL Epic documentation - the first hit line is always “Load and Unload Levels in C++”

Doing a search on that phrase takes me to:

https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/BuildingWorlds/LevelStreaming/HowTo/StreamWithCPP/

The trouble is, all those first hits are blueprint pages, so I’m unable to get any hit results for just c++.

Does anyone know of a work-around so c++ results are shown?

type “unreal U{yourclasshere}” (UMaterialInstance) and google will pick up the U prefix for UObject, same for the F prefix, which is only present in c++. Other way is to include “API” in the search will work most of the time.

Thanks for the reply!

Yes using the class name is what I usually do - even things like AActor go straight to the correct result - but in this instance I was wanting to omit any class name to see if there was any mention of classes I wasn’t aware of.

But in the end I added (without quotes) one of the classes I was using and that was enough to get some good results - so I think that’s a good answer - “Always include at least one Class in the Search”

I’ve tried API and SDK too but never actually seen a difference - it may be the way I phrased the questions though.
