Continuing the discussion from Discourse should ignore if a character is accented when doing a search: @zogstrip implemented a change to search which should now ignore accents. I did an upgrade and tried it out but it does not seem to work. Is it possible that it will only work for new posts? If so, is it possible to apply the fix retroactively i.e. rebuild the PG index? Or maybe I am doing something wrong? btw: I upgraded via upgrade manager UI. Thanks!

[תמונה] danekhollas: If so, is it possible to apply the fix retroactively i.e. rebuild the PG index? If you don’t want to wait for @sam’s changes, SSH into your server and then cd /var/discourse ./launcher enter app rake search:reindex

We need to bump the search version to force a reindex, I guess it is overdue since we had multiple search improvements lately Once we bump the version it will take a few days for index to rebuild

Isn’t there also a rake task if they want to do it manually in the meantime?

Yeah there is a search reindex task

Wohoo, works like a charm, thanks so much! :heart:

Removing diacritics when tokenizing for search does not work retroactively?
