Synonyms
Synonyms help find relevant documents related to the search term, even if the search term is not available directly in the documents. For example, while searching for documents using the term “global”, results with the terms “world” and “international” (synonyms) could match the criteria and will be listed in the search results.
Configuring Synonyms
- Synonyms can be added under the collection settings.
- In Manage Collections, click on any created collection, go to Synonyms tab. Clear the existing content and add the synonyms Or click on
Load from Existing Collection
select the Synonymns from the dropdown and click on Save.
Note
SearchBlox v10 onwards supports new feature
Load from Existing Collection
, where we can load Synonymns from the existing collections.
- The collection has to be indexed for the synonyms to take effect. If the collection has already been previously indexed, then clear and re-index.
- Synonyms are provided as comma-separated words.
- For example: world, global, international.
- When the user searches for "world", "global", "international", documents containing any of these words will appear in search results.
- If the user searches "international", the results will include documents with "world", "global", and "international".
Important Information
