 Carlpedia will ignore common words (stop words) like "and" above. This is the default list of stop words used by lucene. Please cast your vote towards this improvement request.
For eg:
- Searching for "The One" returns all pages containing "One" because "The" is a stop word.
- Searching for "Cheese One" would only return pages in which "One" appears as the first word (other than stop words) after "Cheese". So it would return "Cheese for One" or "Cheese to One" or "Cheese One". It would not match "One Cheese" or "Cheese Flamingo One"

| title | Case Sensitivity in wildcard searches |
|---|
| Since the fix for CONF-13846 Carlpedia is case sensitive for wildcard searches. You should note that all the example searches given previously search across the default set of fields which are stored as lower case and therefore all searches of that style should be given lower case search terms (as shown in the examples). However, if you were to search one of the case sensitive fields, such as 'content-name-untokenized' the case of your search term would need to match the document you are searching for. |
Proximity searches This search ensure that the two words specified must be within a certain number of words of each other to be included. | Code Block |
