Serious Fulltext Search Limitations #876
Comments
I probably should explain this:
Now, these "fulltext" results usually represent FILES. But these do not have the properties of FILE results, at least not in a useable way at this level of abstraction.. And thus, fulltext search in NextCloud is missing ONE fundamental feature: RESTRICT the fulltext search to files from Folder X and below. This is just not possible by design, right? |
That would be nice. I tried it - and it does not highlight the file in its folder. It just links to the folder. Kinda useless.
Well, at least a start, could be improved. But actually, the real missing part for me is a combination of fulltext search and filtering on folders. So, that I can do a fulltext search over all files in a folder (and descendants). |
BTW: ...
Yes! And the fulltext search, in and of itself, works excellent too! But the interface to the user is not really useable, because of some parts missing:
__ I will try to provide actual examples soon - but screens or videos of such data unfortunately need some blurring applied. 😟 |
I found this issue nextcloud/server#42915 which may be related. Generally I assume it makes more sense to report single specific issues instead of a general issue "Serious Fulltext Search Limitations". |
