Coupla Questions
Hello,
For tdsearch: I don't have to use your freebies pages, correct? I can use database tables that already exist. If I turn off "like", I assume you use "match" instead? What are the pros and cons of that? I noticed that you said there is a limit of 2-3 fields that can be searched. If I have more fields (title, author, keywords, description, link, etc.), is there a way to search them also? Is there a way to put a minimum threshold on the result listings, so things that have a relevance less than the threshold do not show up? I think that's about it for now. Thanks! |

Hi, that is correct for one table: tdSearch can search one table, and you can use an existing database table without using the freebies. Quote:
There could be speed differences, with LIKE queries possibly being slower. However, when using MATCH AGAINST queries, short words, words on the MySQL stop list, and words in more than half the rows are excluded. Those are some of the main differences, but if you have access to MySQL source, you can change certain settings (see here for how). Quote:
You can search more columns without code changes (see here for how) but code changes are needed to display content from such extra columns. Quote:
The threshold is currently hardcoded in the queries, returning results where relevance is greater than zero. Quote:
You're welcome. :) |
