How It Is Indexed
Which of the various fields submitted for indexing are actually indexed, and how they are indexed determines what kinds of searches are possible. You can only do date range searches on fields that have been expressly indexed as dates, for example, and you can only search for individual words in fields that have been indexed as text (rather than string) data.
How your content items are indexed is controlled by the Solr
schema. A default Solr schema,
schema.xml
is supplied with the
Content Engine,
and is used to provide the search functionality required by
Content Studio.
When you implement search functionality for your publications you can
use this schema as a starting point, but are recommended to modify it,
since it is unlikely to be well suited to general-purpose search. For
further information about this, see
Customizing
the Index Schema.
