Hi!
It seems that Invenio is searching the exact terms (phrases) here.
It is actually doing Boolean word query matching. It does not find
anything in the first case, because the word `theo' does not occur
anywhere in the metadata; only the word `theor' occurs.
Ok, then I understand why it works as it does.
As for the messages:
| No exact match found for Prog., using Prog instead...
they occur because the dot character is apparently not stripped away
when looking for word term. The search engine could take advantage of
CFG_BIBINDEX_CHARS_PUNCTUATION and friends and amend incoming word
patterns accordingly. I'll ticketise this.
Seen your ticket. Thanks.
Given the Google-slit search here: wouldn't it probably be more to the
users expectations if "Prog Theo Phys Suppl" still doesn't yield
results to do a sub string search i.e. some automatic appended *
probably even further doing real sub string search if still no results
show up?
Yes, this could be done. (Something similar is already being done for
author name searches, e.g. searching for `Tim' finds `Timothy' in SPIRES
search query mode.) We can generalise this behaviour as you suggest --
in case of no direct hit for a word term, append wild card to it -- and
perhaps introduce a new CFG_WEBSEARCH variable that would govern this
behaviour, or else reuse the `ap' (=alternative patterns) variable.
I think this should work. If for some reason I want the phrase to be
searched as is only I could always quote it.
I'll ticketise this.
Thanks :)
