The search is returning dozens of matches rather than exact matches. It is also ignoring limit parameters placed in the Advanced Search. e.g., there was an interesting Subreddit posting and I wanted to check if that username was already mentioned in postings on our forums. So I searched for the ve…

[이미지] emyoulation: But it should report the end of the few (or no) exact matches, and clearly indicating the beginning of semantic AI results. I’ve heard this feedback from a few different places now, so I’ve added a little messaging around it to clarify [image] [image]

If there are very few matches, we expand search to include semantic AI results which is why you’re seeing partial matches on Meta. [이미지] emyoulation: Then I went into the Private Messages to do the same search. And it found the same results… that were Public threads, not messages. Hmm yeah t…

[이미지] awesomerobot: If there are very few matches, we expand search to include semantic AI results which is why you’re seeing partial matches on Meta. That is probably a reasonable fallback behavior. But it should report the end of the few (or no) exact matches, and clearly indicating the be…

[이미지] emyoulation: should report the end of the few (or no) exact matches It kind of does that. [IMG_7382] The really disappointing fact is that it should at least have found this topic as the first result. It’s not a PM but it does contain an exact match. Another thing. I think “AI resul…

Odd. That does not happen on our site … nor did it happen in my test here. But of course, the results will no longer have a “no results” for the test case… once this thread works its way into the indexed content. The “Discobot discoveries” is not something that appears to be active on the site.

[이미지] emyoulation: The “Discobot discoveries” is not something that appears to be active on the site. Ahh. I see. (Although the Discobot search must be an addon that we don’t have installed?) It is in the search preview here. But the results AFTER pressing Enter do not indicate the divisi…

[이미지] emyoulation: here. But of course, the results will no longer have a “no results” for the test case No. It is in there. But if you search “in:messages” then it switches to “AI” which does not find it. If you search in regular topics then it does find it… :roll_eyes: [IMG_7384]

[이미지] RGJ: No. It is in there. I am sorry to contradict but, No. It is not in our free (for open source projects) site hosting by the Discourse organization. I just re-tested in both the forums and the Private Messaging. The screen capture I pasted above (that DID have it) was the re-test in…

[이미지] emyoulation: I am sorry to contradict but I was (obviously) referring to this topic in this forum.

[이미지] Falco: Our reasoning is that expand search automatically covers a lot of situations, like searching in another language (our semantic search is multilingual), typos, synonyms, etc In that case, the search would benefit from an Advanced Search option to not do that. There are times (many…
