Search for ‘globali*z*ation’ only returns search results for ‘globalization’ but doesn’t include any results for ‘globali*s*ation’ and vice versa.
I’m looking
into solr.HunspellStemFilterFactory filter (available in Solr 3.5).
<filter class="solr.HunspellStemFilterFactory" dictionary="en_GB.dic,en_US.dic" affix="en_GB.aff,en_US.aff" ignoreCase="true" />
Before upgrading from Solr 3.4 to 3.6.1 I was wondering if Hunspell filter is the way to go?
Thanks
If stemming doesn’t solve this for you, you could always use a SynonymFilterFactory in order to normalize both spellings into one, I guess a dictionary containing US/UK spelling variations wouldn’t be hard to come by.
