: However, a search for vp does not return results where the title is
: senior vice president. It appears that the term vp is not indexed
: when there is a longer string that matches a different synonym. Is this
: by design, and is there any way to make solr index all synonyms that
: match a term, even if it is contained in a longer synonym? Thanks!
You haven't given us the full details on how you are using the
SynonymFilterFactory (expand true or false?) but in general: yes the
SynonymFilter finds the longest match it can.
if every svp is also a vp, then being explict in your synonyms (when doing
index time expansion) should work...
