Paul Borgermans	Friday 02 November 2007 5:34:25 am Hi Lukasz That is the subject of one of the ongoing commercial projects. In our implementation, it relies on one hand on meta-data and object relations, yet an experimental content clustering engine is about to implemented too. The latter and overall navigation is for a good part powered by Solr, the engine also used in eZ Find What are your needs?

Lukasz Piech	Friday 02 November 2007 5:50:39 am Thanks Paul, I am also thinking about imlementing the ezFind solution into my project. Here is what I am planning to do: 1. Have 3 or 4 content classes - Problems Solution, How to article, FAQ etc 2. The classes will have Symptoms, Goals, Facts and Fixes - all searchable 3. Advanced Find based on eZ Find can search those attributes from point 2 (so far - plain and simple, except fuzzy searches which are not in eZ Find) 4. Allow Open by ID function for solutions, How tos , FAQ - absolutely no idea how to implement this one. This must be based on Node ID i guess.... 5. Embed advancedfind view from eZ Find, Tag Cloud, and sitemap into main page - still experimenting :) (you can see my posts on this in the forum) So the requirements are not high i guess Lukasz

Thanks Paul,

I am also thinking about imlementing the ezFind solution into my project.

Here is what I am planning to do:

1. Have 3 or 4 content classes - Problems Solution, How to article, FAQ etc
2. The classes will have Symptoms, Goals, Facts and Fixes - all searchable
3. Advanced Find based on eZ Find can search those attributes from point 2

(so far - plain and simple, except fuzzy searches which are not in eZ Find)

4. Allow Open by ID function for solutions, How tos , FAQ - absolutely no idea how to implement this one. This must be based on Node ID i guess....
5. Embed advancedfind view from eZ Find, Tag Cloud, and sitemap into main page - still experimenting :) (you can see my posts on this in the forum)
