via @tagawa:

Thread / Idea comments are not indexed in dezi - only top-level entities are added. We need to revisit our site-search setup. ddg.dd site: search throws up more results.

< tagawa> Searching for "multiple search sources" in the forums returns nothing, whereas with ddg there are 3 results.

Hello, I also saw another ticket/issue about searching the site... and maybe I don't understand the problem...but... I have some good experiences with solutions that have implemented https://lucene.apache.org/

We currently use Dezi which is based on Apache Lucy, which is a port of Lucene :smile:

Our problem is we just don't index the comments along with the thread.

I also attempted to use postgres n-gram index searching, but cross table queries would be very slow since we didn't have a version which supports materialized views (cross-table indexing).
