Management Charles Posted March 12, 2018 Management Share Posted March 12, 2018 We announced the 4.3 search improvements recently. If you have not had a look please read the news entry: One of the big changes was the addition of Elasticsearch as an option but there were improvements to search overall no matter what method you are using. Right now we are using normal MySQL searching along with the new interface and backend logic. Later this week we will enabling Elasticsearch. So I wanted to give everyone notice of this upcoming change so those of you who are heavy search users could compare the search experience now and then later this week when Elasticsearch is enabled. I will let you know in this topic when we do that. As always, please post beta bugs in the bug tracker. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sobrenome Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Will the new elastic search "intelligent"search system that recognizes singular, plural and typos be used to tagging system also? It would be awesome if so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ77 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I might have prematurely got excited I’m not sure it’s working great this morning. I did a couple spot checks at first and it passed but it failed my spot checks this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metor Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 @Charles @Daniel F @Ryan Ashbrook is there a way to make it possible to search for 3 letter words? whenever I search a word like "Gym" it always says no results found when I'm sure there are. Haven't seen a setting for it but is it possible to alter it in the code somewhere thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Charles Posted March 21, 2018 Author Management Share Posted March 21, 2018 You can do that with Elasticsearch: https://invisioncommunity.com/search/?q=gym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel F Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Works just fine here with Elasticsearch https://invisioncommunity.com/search/?q=gym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metor Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 that's weird when I try on this site it always works. but I use the default system and it always says no results found. when using 3 letter words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Ashbrook Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 This is because MySQL has a four character limit by default, whereas Elastic Search (which we are using here, introduced in 4.3) does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metor Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 ah yeah thanks I see now. that's the problem when I ran SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'ft_min_word_len' it showed 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas P Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Hi, as it seems searching with wildcards isn't possible... When searching for the term 'password' I get results, using 'passwor*' or 'passwor?' doesn't render any results. Is there a reason why? Thanks, Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas P Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Stemming works, but not using wildcards - that's not the same ? Could someone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koper74 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 On 24.3.2018 at 9:25 AM, Thomas P said: Could someone confirm? Yes I can. If I search for start* it does not find the match startseite. @Charles Instead of wildcard support (or in addition to it), we would like to have the ngram-tokenizers integrated - including the possibility to configure min_gram, max_gram and token_chars in the ACP. Compound words (e.g. "Kriminalpolizei") are used very often in German. With the current settings, Elasticsearch does not find them when searching for the individual words (for example "kriminal", "polizei") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsesx Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I don't like that it's not possible to search for an exact word order with the new search. If type in "big changes", with the old engine I got all posts containing these exact term. Now I get no result, if search the same without the " I get some results but it's not satisfying.

Adriano Faria Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I have a specific file that I cannot find in new system: “Other Files From File Submitter”. No matter what, it doesn’t show up. But new system is fine and works better than 4.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be awesome if so! Invision: just provide an optional a link to Google search ( CSE or not ) and this feature would become available. You can never match what the Google search engine can do.
