Hello Solr Users, I've tried to find the answer to this question, and have tried changing my configuration several times, but to no avail. I think someone on this list will know the answer.
Here's my question: I have some products that I want to allow people to search for with wild cards. For example, if my product is YBM354, I'd like for users to be able to search on "YBM*", "YBM3*", "YBM35*" and for any of these searches to return that product. I've found that I can search for "YBM*" and get the product, just not the other combinations. I found this: http://www.nabble.com/Can%C2%B4t-use-wildcard-%22*%22-on-alphanumeric-values--td24369209.html, but adding preserveOriginal="1" doesn't seem to make a difference. I found an example here: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/AnalyzersTokenizersTokenFilters#solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory that is close, but I want to do the opposite. The example is: "Super-Duper-XL500-42-AutoCoder!" -> 0:"Super", 1:"Duper", 2:"XL", 2:"SuperDuperXL", 3:"500" 4:"42", ..... In this example, I want to be able to find this record by searching for "XL5*". I appreciate the help. Please let me know if there are any questions. Thanks, Adrian Carr
