Hello, I’ve upgraded our Discourse instance from 2.2.6 to 2.3. Unfortunately we’ve noticed some issues with search: the result contains mostly totally unrelated posts (many posts don’t have the search phrase) the search ignores the options (like Matching in title only) It shows up with terms con…

If you ever amend the site setting search ignore accents you must rebuild the full search index with: ./launcher enter app rake search:reindex

Thanks for the hint! Unfortunately it doesn’t solve the problem :frowning: It’s quite weird that some pre-2.3 posts contain search URLs (some has multi-word search terms with different accents) which are working fine and return valid result while new search queries are not working and give back not…

Has nobody met this problem? :fearful: Unfortunately accents can’t be ignored because it would result in inaccurate results. Where should I look to fix this issue? Maybe downgrading back to 2.2 (it’d be just a temporary fix though :frowning: )? Any idea is welcome!

And you confirm 100% that search ignore accents in site setting is unchecked and that you did a reindex after unchecking that?

Thank you for looking into this problem :+1: [backup] [basic_settings] [files] [login] [misc] [publish] [required] [search] [security] [spam] [user_settings] Branding was left out there are only images.
