How can I make searches case insensitive?
The search page should be case insensitive. If it is not, then it
might be a bug.
it's a bug... I don't know if we have a jira issue. I heard this
issue
from another user 2 days ago and I remember
seeing it myself.
I'm using PostgreSQL as backend, could that be the source of the
problem? How actually searching works? Using database functions? If
you
give me a hint where is it done (in code) I can investigate the
problem.
Check the code for Main.WebSearch , its a series of hibernate hql
queries. The string is searched with "where field LIKE '$keyword'",
so if LIKE is not case insensitive, this is the cause.
Sergiu, I think this also happens with HSQL. We should check if it
happens on
xwiki.org too (what is it running on BTW? MySQL?)

It was not clear to me does it replace regular search, thanks for the
answer. I will add search box integration to JIRA for future
reference,
and I think that this should be stated on plugin page, because
description is a bit misleading: "It can be used in place of the
default
search implementation..."
Feel free to edit and improve the LucenePlugin documentation on the
wiki :-)
Thanks
