Hi Lutz, That is because neither Solr nor Lucene (the indexing/searching toolkit that Solr runs on top of) know anything about compound words. Noting there knows that the English word "wishlist" is a compounded word. You'd have to write your own analyzer and tokenizer that examines each word/token and splits it into its constituent words if the token/word is a compound word. In other words, you'd have to write something that is language-aware and language-specific.

For example I have the composite word "wishlist" in my document. I can easily find the document by using the search string "wishlist" or "wish*" but I don't get any result with "list". I can do a fuzzy search but this gives me too many results. Is where a better way to fix this problem ? Kindly regards Lutz Steinborn 4c GmbH
