Hi Harald and thank you for your great jDiction.

I have a problem with searching / finding.

Default language is german and following effects:
Searching a german word in the german site: works fine
Searching an english word in the  in the german site: shows nothing, which is fine, too.
Searching a german word in the english site: shows results with german text and english title/link
Searching an english word in the english site: nothing - not fine

How do I get german results in the german site and english results in the english site?
I tried to understand your advices to Finarfin in "Searching with finder" at http://forum.jdiction.org/index.php/topic,360.0.html but didn't understand everything.
For example: you adviced him to reset com_finder and do a rescan. How do I do this? (Maybe this will already solve my problem.)
Can you help me?

My system:
jDiction 1.2.0 with Joomla 2.5.19
Checkpage:
everything green
Finder plugins:
All deactivated, only "Smart Search - jDiction content plugin" active

In the Backend in the Smart Search component you have 2 Buttons in the top right corner. Purge and Index (see Image). Use Purge and then use Index.

[Sven]

So I did, the list in the backend is now full of entries of type article, but it didn't help. Still the same.

Is the "Smart Search component" standardly included in joomla or a downloadable extension?
Why I ask this? My backend is German, too and so its name is just "Suchindex", but the top right corner looks nearly the same (Purge="Index leeren")

Do I have to use an other searching component than the standard one and just didn't realise it because of its German names?

[Harald Leithner]

please send me a pm with superuser access and I will look at it.

[Sven]

Sorry, unfortunately that is not possible.
The only thing I can do is sending you screenshots of the settings you would like to check.

[Harald Leithner]

Teamviewer?

[Sven]

Sorry, not possible, too.
My admin is very strict.
Screenshots are the only source of information I can offer to you.

[Harald Leithner]

lol, ok I will try it anyway.

Could you please post a screenshot of the index?

[Sven]

Here you are...

[Harald Leithner]

That seams to be correct... maybe the index module is broken... I will check this.

[Sven]

Could you find something?

(I'm not in a hurry, just want to know.)

[Harald Leithner]

I tried it on jdiction.org and it works fine:

English word:
http://jdiction.org/en/component/finder/search?q=donate&Search=
http://jdiction.org/de/component/finder/search?q=donate&Search=

German word:
http://jdiction.org/en/component/finder/search?q=spenden&Search=
http://jdiction.org/de/component/finder/search?q=spenden&Search=


Now I'm a bit confused where the problem is...

I have the problem That I find donate in the german version, the reason for this could be the alias of the article but i'm not sure.

[Sven]

If I try a word which does only exist as an alias in my whole site (german and english), nothing is found.
So maybe the reason why you find "donate" in your german site could be an other, not the alias.

[Harald Leithner]

I removed the complete index except that page ;-) so you will not find any other article.

[Harald Leithner]

for example the word "Direct" is working and "bieten" also.

So I think the reason is the url or the alias...
