tx_solr.suggest

This feature allows you to show a suggest layer that suggest terms that start with the letters that have been typed into the search field

numberOfSuggestions

Type

Integer

TS Path

plugin.tx_solr.suggest.numberOfSuggestions

Since

1.1

Default

10

Sets the number of suggestions returned and displayed in the layer attached to the search field.

suggestField

Type

String

TS Path

plugin.tx_solr.suggest.suggestField

Since

1.1

Default

spell

Sets the Solr index field used to get suggestions from. A general advice is to use a field without stemming on it. For practical reasons this is currently the spell checker field.

Note: With EXT:solr 11.1.0 ASCII folding and language depending normalization filters were introduced, but due to the special behaviour of the auto suggestions ascii-terms were not treated correctly. So with 11.1.3 the untouched tokens are also kept, as this might lead to duplicate suggestions, a new field for exact suggestions is introduced, if you want to avoid duplicates and use stricter suggestions, just configure spellExact as suggest field.

forceHttps

Type

Boolean

TS Path

plugin.tx_solr.suggest.forceHttps

Since

1.1

Default
Options

0,1

If enabled, HTTPS will be used for querying suggestions. Otherwise HTTP will be used.

treatMultipleTermsAsSingleTerm

Type

Boolean

TS Path

plugin.tx_solr.suggest.treatMultipleTermsAsSingleTerm

Since

1.4 / 1.7-dkd

Default
Options

0,1

When a user types multiple words into your search field they usually are split up into full keywords used in the query's q parameter and the last part being the partial keyword in the facet.prefix parameter. Enabling this setting moves everything into the facet.prefix parameter. This is usually only useful when using a string field as suggest / auto-complete source field.

Example - Here "Hello Solr" are the full keywords and the user started typing "World" so that "Wo" is used as the partial keyword:

"Hello Solr Wo" -> q=Hello Solr, facet.prefix=Wo (default) "Hello Solr Wo" -> q=<empty>, facet.prefix=Hello Solr Wo (treatMultipleTermsAsSingleTerm)
