Sphinx functions

[steve]

Hi,
I just realized that the current Sphinx implementation that we have, is an exact match.
For example, a search on "car" will not give us results for "cars" ... and vice versa

Search is one of the most important functions in a classifieds website, and most big websites have quite good search options.
Can we make our Sphinx search a bit more flexible?

add this into index config

morphology = stem_en
like this

Code: Select all

index tfc_main_index
{
source = tfc_main_source
path = /var/lib/sphinxsearch/data/tfc_main_index
docinfo = extern
stopwords = /etc/sphinxsearch/tfcstopwords.txt
type = plain
morphology = stem_en
}

and run this command
indexer --rotate --all

Hi Navjot,

i have 2 questions -

1.) It seems the "stem_en" is for English, but my website is in Spanish. Will "stem_es" work?
2.) It seems tuffclassified website does not use it.. any reason why you don't use morphology?

Thanks

add lemmatize_es
morphology = stem_en, lemmatize_es

or you can also use only lemmatize_es
In the middle of testing dev sphinx config we missed this option, enabled it again.

You know you can also add wordform to sphinx too,
for more info see http://sphinxsearch.com/docs/current.ht ... -wordforms

Man! This is just so cool!!
Do you have any tutorial on upgrading sphinx server to the latest version on ubuntu 14.04 ?

I will implement this when i install the new tuffclassified theme. When is the expected date of release?
Thanks!

You can run these command in your ubuntu terminal.

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:builds/sphinxsearch-rel22
sudo apt-get update

Run this command and it will upgrade your sphinx.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get upgrade sphinxsearch

Thank you for the upgrade process.
Any estimated timelines for the Shopclass theme's release?

1-2 days, even I am excited to do this as soon as possible.
It's been 1 month of continuous day/night development, too much work for a single person.
