Hi Geoff
Just to confirm: are you using an actual facet for this search, or just
searching with conditions on the field in question?
If it's the latter (which is what it sounds like), then the issue is that field
searches aren't on the full value of the field - this is Sphinx's normal
behaviour. However, you can use regex-ish syntax to mark the start and end of
the value - something like the following should hopefully work:
Product.search :conditions => {:brand => "^Nike$"}
(The docs were shifted because I changed GitHub usernames from freelancing-god
to pat - but earlier today I published the docs back to
freelancing-god.github.com, given I grabbed that username again to direct
people to the new locations. So, Google should be happier with that situation.
It's a shame GitHub doesn't allow 301 redirects from one account to another).
Cheers
