: I've managed to do this by adding : : <filter class="solr.ISOLatin1AccentFilterFactory"/> : : To the fieldType that the field is using. It seems to work well. Can : anyone advise if this is not a good idea?
ISOLatin1AccentFilterFactory works fine, but because it's a TokenFilter it changes the Tokens, which means you may see oddities with token offset info (used in highlighting) Instead you might wnat to use <charFilter class="solr.MappingCharFilterFactory" ... /> with a mapping file where you define the mappings you want to add. (CharFilter's operate on the raw Character stream before tokenization, and fix the character offset information as they replace characters) -Hoss
