german umlauts about tntsearch HOT 6 CLOSED

Check how your data is saved in the database, and then in the index. If you are using some kind of text editor it's possible that it doesn't save "clean" letters but escapes them...

Since index is just a SQLite database you can peak at wordlist table and see what terms were actually indexed, let us know what you find there regarding umlauts ;)

Oh, I didn't know you could set the charset in the loadConfig object.
After setting 'charset' => 'utf8' everything works.
Thank you! :)

Hi,

you can set German stemmer before executing indexing query ie. like this:

$indexer = $tnt->createIndex('my.index');
$indexer->setLanguage('german');

note that on depending how you save your data in the database you may need this as well:

$indexer->decodeHtmlEntities();

Hope this helps and I think we should add this to the Readme so thanks for pointing it out :)

Hi Sasa,

now i get sometimes results for search terms. german umlauts or normal chars.

I create a new record. In the search i find the search term.
Next time i create an other record. In the search i don´t get the search term.

Same with updates.

Any suggestions on that?

Thank you for your help
with regards
Klaus

Just realised that I too have this problem.
I tried reindex with German stemmer, but it didn't seem to do anything unfortunately.
My language is actually Swedish, but we share some chars with German. So it seems that åäö doesn't get indexed.
