Smart Search pulling partial words

[mcclainluke-sys]

I am running into a issue where the smart search module in Joomla pulls partial words from the content.

Example...I searched "Sample Rate" and the JS is highlighting the word RATE in "Accu RATE" and pulling the word apart. Is there a way to fix this so that the search terms are not being pulled from larger words?

This is normal behaviour. If you want exactly the term 'sample rate' you must include it in quotation marks.

Major search engines operate similarly. It is expected from the search module here. "Accurate" should not be in the search results anyway.

To be precise: A phrase needs to be enclosed in double quotes ", e.g. "sample rate".

And I think it also needs to enable the search for phrases in the Smart Search options (and re-index when that option had to be changed):

@mcclainluke-sys Please check and report back or close that issue if that works for you. Thanks in advance.
