Remove support for stand-alone '*' in Quickfind
|
This feature requires a minimum server version:
|
To prevent performance degradation, support for standalone use of the asterisk character as a wildcard in Quickfind searches has been removed.
Asterisks may still be used combined with a partial search term, with some limitations:
- Right-truncation with an asterisk is supported (e.g. "Art*" will return results for art, artist, arthouse, arthritis, etc)
- Left-truncation with an asterisk is supported, but requires a space separating the asterisk and the term (e.g. "* potter" will return Harry Potter, Beatrix Potter, etc)
- Left-truncating with an asterisk without a space separating the asterisk and the term will not include the term in the search
Searching with a standalone asterisk will return an error.
If an asterisk is used where there are other criteria selected (e.g. if an OPAC header search runs a boolean query, if selecting Collection or Location in a form) the asterisk will be ignored and only the selected criteria applied.
|
These changes apply to both WBA and OPAC Quickfind searches. |
