Epic #65814: Make Indexed search extbase plugin shine
Indexed Search does not tell the user why searching for "e" fails
Added by Udo von about 19 years ago.
Updated over 4 years ago.
Description
Searching for "e" for example does not return any helpful message for the website user. The method "register_and_explode_search_string" collects the search words, but words like "e" won't be search.
I consider to change the line
elseif (strlen($val)>1) {
to
else () {
(issue imported from #M860)
Even Google won't let you search for such short words (can a letter be a whole word?).
I don's see any sense in this.
Please change the bug description and I will get this in.

Hmm, can't remember why I wrote this. Anyway, can you please check if the problem still occurs in 3.8.0beta1?
Sorry for not implementing this in 3.8.0. I just had another look at that topic:
Even Google won't let you search for such short words (can a letter be a whole word?).
This is not true anymore. This is really weird - did you know that there are exactly 3.250.000.000 pages containing an "a" and Apple is the first match of that list?! ;-)
Seriously, I agree with your points. Let's make that change, I'll move it to my todo list.
- Status changed from Accepted to Needs Feedback
- Target version deleted (

- TYPO3 Version set to 3.8
Hi,
as this issue is very old. Does the problem still exists within newer versions of TYPO3 CMS (4.5 or 6.1)?
- Status changed from Needs Feedback to New
- Assignee deleted (
Michael Stucki)
- Complexity set to easy
The problem still exists. However, it's of very low importance imho. So if someone wants to see this feature, please take over and submit a patch for it.
- Target version set to 7.5
- Parent task set to #65814
- Target version changed from 7.5 to 7 LTS
- Status changed from New to Closed
Due to low demand / low priority I'm going to close this issue now. If anyone takes time to implement it, simply open a new issue please. Thanks.
Closed after 15 years. This looks like a new record to me! :-)
