I'm having trouble using a * wildcard after a term in a search. It does not
seem to match "0 or more", but rather "something more, as long as it's not
nothing". This is using the standard query handler, by the way.
Examples:
Search for theatr* => returns 112 results, for things named 'theatre'
Search for theatre* => returns 0 results
Anyone know why this would be?
My guess would be stemming.
The indexed form of theatre is probably theatr after it goes through
the porter stemmer.
Perhaps ou could index another variant of the field (via copyField)
that just splits on whitespace and lowercases.
