I want that the visitors of my website shall be able to search and get a list of all variations of a word. How/Where can I implement in EZ that when the vistors searches, then the word search is %searchtext% which gives variations of words, and not that the visitors have to type the exact word?

I once tried this. Only thing I can say for sure isn't very straight forward. It might be easier to write your own module to search through the index...

So, it's hard to make this easy little "thing" in eZ? In other cms you can just add % in front or/and after the searchvariable in the sql-query..

Well you could try. I gave up after an hour trying to figure out how exactly the search works. I might try again when I really need it. (Someone mentioned that while adding like to queries might work, the functions that format the results could become confused by multiple returns)

No, don't want to turn on this feature, just want to enable that the user searches in %searchtext% and not has to type the exactly searchword..

Oh, I wasn't aware of the wildcard feature. What you could probably do: use Javascript or patch the beginning of the search code to change the query to "*searchword*". I wasnt aware of the wildcard searching feature, that is sweet!

It's not sweet when you have lots of users who are searching with the wildcards ....it may make your mysql-db crash..because ez starts to many not so very optimized sql-queries and too many sql queries.. So be careful..

hi,
In the advancedsearch, we can do the search with :
seach text or phrasesearchtext but not with AnywordSearchText. Do you know what I have to do to search any words.
