    In the PRO version are there any WordPress hooks that can change Elasticsearch settings and mapping?

    Authors posts could only be found by matching perfectly firstname + lastname string, and that would need to be changed in the mapping before indexing.

    Yes and no.

    No : I started a generic mapping by drag&drop with all analysers/filters a few month ago, but did not finish it.

    Yes : but in the PRO version, you can select a type for each searched fields (the “boosts”). By default the type is text without analysers. But you can also select the type with the default analysers.

    Boosts change the analyser

    I can change the ‘author’ default type ‘keyword’ to ‘text’ in the ‘Search field boosts’?

    Have you considered adding a “quote” char_filter in the settings?

    I found problematic searching for words with apostrophes using the plugin free version.

    “char_filter”: {

    “quotes”: {

    “type”: “mapping”,

    “mappings”: [

    “\\u0091=>\\u0027”,

    “\\u0092=>\\u0027”,

    “\\u2018=>\\u0027”,

    “\\u2019=>\\u0027”,

    “\\u201B=>\\u0027”

    ]
    }
    }

    yes

    Have you considering to add a “quote” char_filter in the settings?

    No, because there are tens/hundreds of other possible tunings, only adapted to specific needs. That was the purpose of my previous generic mapping settings.
