Full-Text Search Language Settings |

Here the language specific information is defined in order to optimize the search index of the full-text search. A configuration of the language settings also makes sense if lookups are used for the full-text search to provide multiple languages.

Description |
Search index language |
Language of the data to be indexed. The Locale (two-letter language-code, according to ISO 639-1) is used to build the search index. The locale is used to transform special characters (e.g. ß, Ž, Ç) for the phonetic alignment and influences the phonetic preprocessing for the data (in order to retrieve search hits although the search word is not spelled correctly but sounds similar). The full-text search is case-insensitive. |
Phonetic alignment |
Defines a comma-separated list of character substitutions that are used when indexing subindices or sending a full-text search request. These substitutions can be used to configure a phonetic search. Some examples (applicable to the German language): Umlaut "ä" = "ä->a,ae->a"; long vowel "i" = "ieh->i,ie->i" etc. The reduced text leads to a higher probability to find a result with a phonetic instead of the correct spelling. Note: Only lower case characters are to be used for the Phonetic alignment. Caution: The order of the given substitution blocks is important. |

Note: Further steps that are necessary in order to provide the full-text search functionality within a WebOffice 10.5 SP2 project are described in the "How to Configure..." chapter Full-Text Search.
