Third party apostrophe: second word in all'aqua not found

[rebelde]

A search for the second word in the Italian contraction all'aqua does not find this thread.

What I expect:
People should be able to search for that second word after the apostrophe and be able to find the thread.

There are currently two threads with all'aqua. This one and the one that I created in the Test Messages forum.

Cheers

Basically XenForo "Enhanced" Search sucks when it comes to searching for special characters not part of the default english language: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/search-sensibility.96299/

Ugg. Nobody has even mentioned the accent problem to me, even after a month running XF.

Super120, I will be finding solutions to these problems over the next month or so. (My forums are multilingual. I absolutely have to.) If you write me at the end of summer, I should be able to share the code.

Thanks man. I'll write you by the end of July to see if you got a workaround.

By the way you might want to like this suggestion: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/accent-insensitive-search-results.96301/

This particular issue is independent of accent related things. This example related to how words are split -- you want ' to be a word splitter when it's in the middle of a word, but that is not really globally applicable. "Don't" should not necessarily tokenize to "don" and "t"; the use of the apostrophe means it's a single word.

MySQL full text doesn't split on this either for example. Unlike with MySQL, there is the ability to manipulate the tokenizing process in Elasticsearch.

I will see what I can do to find a way to keep "don't" as a single token and "all'acqua" as two.

Thanks
