We're still on version 3.4 & searching for "nature defecit" fails to
bring up the title "Last child in the woods : saving our children from
nature-deficit disorder" in both the staff & public catalog search.
We have the QueryFuzzy preference enabled under Search preferences.
Can anyone address whether this is expected behavior, or whether the
fuzzy search engine is improved in 3.8?
A couple of points (using 3.6.1 in production, and an experimental 3.8.???
in my sand box) and after cataloguing your Richard Louv title, and using
both staff and OPAC:
Searching for "nature defecit" *with* the double quotes fails -- this I
expect, as the quotes eliminate fuzziness.
Searching for nature defecit (no quotes) works perfectly.
Searching for "nature-deficit" (with quotes) fails; I am only
semi-surprised as the logic of the - (minus sign) is to search for the
phrase without the term after the minus. However +nature -deficit also
finds that title alone and in my opinion should not (but my opinion is not
definitive.)
I also tested with a phrase a little more common to our catalogue: British
Navy
British Navy ==> 1636 results
"British Navy" ==> no results (this I must look into, I am very surprised
as it actually exists in the catalogue written with the quote marks on
several occasions.)
Britsh Navy and British Nevy both ==> 1634 results (have not yet found
which two (if the same two?) are missing.
But ... Britsh Nevy (double typo) finds 1637 ... weird.
