Hi Walter I’m quite sure there’s nothing truly different in how TS v2 to v3 treat wildcards, but they do use different Sphinx protocols - so it feels like this is due to Sphinx’s SphinxQL protocol change.
None of the excerpt options (which appear to be the same for both approaches) seem to be related to whether all matches are returned, which is annoying. http://sphinxsearch.com/docs/current.html#api-func-buildexcerpts Perhaps it’s worth asking on the Sphinx forum instead, to see if anyone there knows more? http://sphinxsearch.com/forum/ Sorry I can’t be more help! — Pat > On 11 Apr 2015, at 9:54 pm, Walter Lee Davis <[email protected]> wrote: > > I am using the latest Sphinx and ThinkingSphinx, and comparing it with my > memory of a much older setup (I don't have the older system in place any > more).
