I'm using the second approach and it seems to be working well. If your tagged items might have *lots* of tags, you may need to add the ":source => :query" option to your attribute definition. I haven't tried combining facets with my MVAs.

In what way does its data model not suit TS? My tags are just implemented in the app. Not through any special need, it just seemed relatively simple. -- James Healy <jimmy-at-deefa-dot-com> Mon, 06 Jul 2009 23:04:57 +1000 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thinking Sphinx" group.
