I’d like to ignore apostrophe’s and spaces. For example, if I search my site for the movie “The Devils Candy” nothing is found, because the name is technically “The Devil’s Candy”. And if I copy/paste the name of a movie into the search bar (which users commonly do) no movie is found since pasting puts one space after the title. Please let me know if there’s a way to ignore these things. Thanks, Adrian June 8, 2018 at 12:51 pm #18167 Ernest MarcinkoKeymaster Hi Adrian, Yes, by using the index table engine. That way the words are stored both with and without punctuation marks. June 8, 2018 at 6:19 pm #18174 interfabParticipant ok thanks!
