Question

I have a table with a fulltext on one column “volltext” type is mediumtext. The fulltext index is “volltext”. I matched words on it like

SELECT * FROM `volltextsuche` WHERE MATCH(volltext) AGAINST('+search' IN BOOLEAN MODE)

this will find any occurence correctly.

BUT never for more (no matter how often it is in the text).

SELECT * FROM `volltextsuche` WHERE MATCH(volltext) AGAINST('+more' IN BOOLEAN MODE)

Text example: “more Gil Coste Corbo More
Fragile Ästhetik”

Wrapping the word with “ does not help.

SELECT * FROM `volltextsuche` WHERE MATCH(volltext) AGAINST('+`more`' IN BOOLEAN MODE)

What is this for a remarkable behaviour?

Answer 1

more is a stopword of fulltext search at mysql
