Search for Exact Words

Hi,


I’m using link to search engine to list some items. The problem is when some items have same name but with extra word at the end. So I need to find way to make search engine look for exact words.



Example:



I’m using this link to look for item with have same thing in metadata:



.../search_user?queries_name_query=&queries_call_year_query=&queries_silk_year_query=&queries_chamber_name_query=[color="#FF0000"]%asset_metadata_chamber%&queries_city_query=&queries_post_code_query=&search_page_35946_submit_button=Search¤t_result_page=0&results_per_page=0&submitted_search_category=&mode=



Where [color="#FF0000"]%asset_metadata_chamber%[/color] is what is search looking for. In some cases chamber name is [color="#FF0000"] New Square Chamber[/color] and second [color="#FF0000"] New Square Chamber London[/color] where all items witch should be displayed only under [color="#FF0000"]New Square Chamber London [/color] are being displayed also under [color="#FF0000"]New Square Chamber[/color].



What can I do? I’m using Matrix 3.10. Is this problem solved in latest version?



Thanks,

That is just the way searching works. The search page is designed to to find as many results as possible so you don't miss out on something.


I'm not sure that you can do what you are after without some minor development.

Thanks,


Is there anther way to do what I'm after, any other logic? How about version 3.16 of Matrix?

That depends on what you're actually trying to do. :) There is no way to search directly for a specific term, but you may be able to use tagging and a related asset listing to achieve the same result. We'd need to know more about what you want to achieve though.
