Some thoughts about improving the current (ajax) search:
* search TVs
* search chunks
Problem: @inherit in TVs (has to look till something is found->performance?). What if the content of a TV or chunk is the same on 100 pages? Display 100 results and run the risk of suppressing "real" results? -> Difficult to handle, perhaps a solution ike Google´s "more results... " if a chunk is the same on more than x pages.
* search ditto generated pages
I often organize pages with ditto, for example overviews of items. But the single item never can be reached (isn´t linked to). With the current search the document is found and linked to, but I don´t want to have the single page displayed. Solution: Uncheck "searchable" in the document´s settings, but then the content never is found through the search. Possible solution: search the cache, so the ditto generated page with the content of the items can be found. Would that be possible?
* some kind of relevance rating with sorting
E.g. number of results / number of words as a measure?
* categorizing results
Possibility to define parents (folders?) as categories, so results look like
Departments
--------------
result 1
result 2
Products
--------------
result 3
Team
--------------
result 4
result 5
Any thoughts? I think a powerful search is an important element of a powerful CMS
