Exact Match Phrase Search & BOOLEAN Operators (AND, OR, " ", ETC)

  • Hello! We have developed a digital archive for a client (https://digitallibrary.hsccmd.org/) that is leveraging your paid plugin for the search functionality. I searched this forum for a similar topic, and all I could find was from 2020 so I apologize if this has already been answered. We are receiving some negative feedback from users as the plugin does not accurately search phrases. For example if the user searches "Union Bridge" with quotes or Union AND Bridge or Union+Bridge the results found are not for the exact phrase in that order, but for any item that contains the word Union or the word bridge.

    Does the plugin support more specific search parameters or is there any way to configure it to do so? Thank you!

    Hi @cantuaria Please tell me which version of the plugin do you use? Could you tell me if you have activated Deeper Search option and do you use an Index Optimizer (latest option on the Main Page). Thanks!

    Hi, @Amine The WPFTS Pro version you are using is very outdated. Please consider upgrading to 2.46.x which is the latest. It has a completely new indexing and searching algorithm and it should solve your issue.

    Hi @davide-merlitti It happens because you have problems with wp-cron tasks or DNS configuration. If you have your website hosted locally, often the domain name is just recorded in /etc/hosts file. This is normally okay for browser access (and this is why indexing is coming well but slow when your WP admin is open). But PHP can not read /etc/hosts by some reason and thus indexing procedure can not go internally. Please read this solution and try it. Please let me know if it helps or not. Thanks!
