Just don't ask what we did in Wedge. That crap scares me these days for extending menus. It's very efficient and very compact but hell to figure out if you haven't seen it in a while.
(11:50:49 PM) groundup: I am using a highly modified version of SMF/Elkarte (it is actually Elkarte at this point) for a site I am working on.
(11:51:42 PM) groundup: To make it familiar, I will just use the idea of topics and subjects. So the subject would be something like "Hello Compuart, glad to have you around" and I am looking for "hello compuart". How does it do phrase searching? How do I boost exact matches?
(11:52:22 PM) groundup: and how do I do 'hello' 'compuart' as different ones? The only way I've gotten it to work is with a wildcard between each space but what about other punctuation?
(11:54:37 PM) Compuart: I'm actually not that familiar with the full text search capabilities. We use it mostly for structured searches with huge amounts of properties and (single word) filters
(11:58:48 PM) groundup: How does it compare in speed with MySQL for facet searches?
(11:59:01 PM) groundup: Are you running it distributed?
(11:59:08 PM) Compuart: it's in a completely different league
(11:59:34 PM) groundup: You saying better or just different?
(11:59:40 PM) Compuart: yeah, it's just like Sphinx, a thousand times faster than MySQL could ever be with regards to these kinds of searches
(04/24/2013 12:00:06 AM) groundup: ah okay. Good thing I made that choice early on to use it. Now I just need to get this damn FT stuff working
(12:00:17 AM) Compuart: besides, it's specifically made to do facet search. It does it quite good
(10:27:30 PM) Norv: $ ls -1 sources/admin/ | wc -l
(10:27:30 PM) Norv: 38
(10:27:30 PM) Norv: $ ls -1 sources/controllers/ | wc -l
(10:27:30 PM) Norv: 42
(10:31:04 PM) Norv: Why was I under the impression that the difference is much higher.
(10:32:07 PM) ***Norv ponders whether to pass to objectify the rest of controllers too, along with all the model-side moving out of wherever it still is.
(04/27/2013 12:48:28 AM) groundup: "pass to objectify"?
