Improving synonyms and overall search experience
Is your Search & Navigation (Find) implementation affected by the limitations of the current synonym functionality and/or would you like to improve upon the overall search experience?
Check out https://github.com/episerver/EPiServer.Labs.Find.Toolbox
Setup and configuration is simple. Install NuGet Package and then there are a couple of lines of code to get it working.
What you get
- An improved synonym implementation (No more issues with synonyms in conjuction with .WithAndAsDefaultOperator)
- An overall relevance improvement by utilising MatchPhrase, MatchPhrasePrefix and MatchPrefix
- Support for MinimumShouldMatch which improves search experience further
- FuzzyMatch and WildcardMatch improving searches with typos and partial words
All can be used together or independently and depends on the .For() call for the original query
