Synonym and scope searches

Hi,

We are currently running version 15.10.0 (latest patch) of Funnelback on our server. I have created some synonyms but I have noticed that the synonym seems to not work when using scopes.

e.g. it will work for -
https://search/s/search.html?collection=<meta_collection_name>&query=test

but not for -
https://search/s/search.html?collection=<meta_collection_name>&scope=blahblah.com&query=test

Is there a way to get it working for scopes?

Hi,

I’ve been unable to replicate this. I have tested a collection on our hosted server running 15.10 and synonym expansion does appear to work correctly with or without a scope.

Can you please send a request through to support with some more specific information and they will assist you to investigate.

regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,

I am testing it out on a metacollection which has two different addresses -

e.g.

www.test1.com/helloworld
www.test2.com/helloworld

If the scope is just helloworld then it works but it returns results from both urls. If the scope is www.test1.com/helloworld then it doesn’t work.

Can you test the scenario out on your test server to see if you experience the same behaviour? If you are experiencing the same behaviour then is there a way to make it so that only results from www.test1.com/helloworld are returned in a meta collection?

Thanks.
