Ajax Search by Age using index over exact match

[carterangon76]

Hello Ernest,

Let´s see if you can help with this.

I want to have a search for Age. However, since I have other numbers in the content, it does not pick it up. I tried using “exact match” and so adding “37 years” for example, which would work… however, in this case I would have to disable the “index table” which I have enabled and it´s speeding up the searches a lot so I want to keep using the Index over the exact match…

Any recommendations/suggestion for this age option?

Thanks a lot,
Carmelo

Hi,

I can’t log-in to check ( I get a 403 error page on admin ), but I suggest first checking the minimum number of characters to be indexed to set to 1, as well as the minimum keyword length set to 1. These are the most likely causes 🙂

Ernest,
I have changed those settings to 1. But not sure if it´s in the right place.

I am behind a firewall VPN with a constantly changing region, so I can’t tell a fix IP or a region unfortunately.

Make sure to change the index table options as well. The other ones seem to be all right, that is the right place.

Oh you want to use exact matches with the index table? That is not possible at all.

However matching both keywords should still be doable with a more strict primary logic. Try the “AND with exact keyword matches” logic as the primary and then only exact keyword matches will be displayed.

Great! That´s working now.

Many thanks Ernest : )
