We are in the process of migrating from K2 to IDOL. One of the challenges we have is that we have a bunch of search clients (apps) and we either can't or don't...
Hi Erkan! IDOL does support VQL - for example, if you want to run a query using VQL in IDOL you can just add vql=true to the query string. For example, ...
Yes IDOL 7.x onward does support VQL, you can see VQL section under query help (action=help) and then select query. Thx Varinder...

Hello there, rarely-heard-from search_dev group. I'm pondering no-results and low-results pages for online library catalogs. For the product I'm working with,...
I was looking into this yesterday. Amazon shows some recommendations, things I¹ve looked at recently. IMDB suggests that I change my search options. Ultraseek...
Some search engines also let you change the default "AND" to an "OR", if they submitted multiple words. Or open up the search a bit by turning on stemming,...
Back in the day (1998 - the now defunct CDNow) we implemented an iterative approach. Like Mark suggests, you want to start with a pretty strict search, then...

I've seen 2 distinct meanings of ngrams. One character based, as you suggest, and another word/token based. Verity had a CHARACTER based ngram? I had thought...

I think that Verity K2/VDK did support n-grams, though it probably wasn¹t used much. Verity K2 had positions in the index, so it didn¹t need shingles. Also,...

we are running into a problem with the Import Module not converting unicode characters. It does convert some characters but far too many are left as is. I am...
Is this XML? XML only does numeric entities and five pre-defined character entities. If you need character entities, you need to define them in the file. See...
Yes, this is XML. Which file do you refer to where I should define the entities? I don't have control over the XML itself. Is there an Autonomy convtable file...
First, this is not legal XML. You should be able to prove that by saving it in a file that ends in ³.xml² and opening it with a browser. It will give a parse...
