Hi ,

       Is there anyway can I map enhanced selection attribute to solr.

       In ezfind search  , I couldn't get the results based values from a dropdown list which contain  enhaned seletion attribute values .

Anywork around ideas will be a great help.

Hello,

 

Indeed ezselection index only IDs. As far as I'm concerned I started from eZ Selection 2 project (http://projects.ez.no/ezselection2) and I tweaked it to give necessary information to search engine.

Thanks for the reply .

 

            While I was reading the forum , I read a thread thats from you about mapping of ezselection to solr felds. But frankly I didn't get much from that.

What do you suggest for me. Should I change from enhaned selection to ezselection2. Can you please give me some more ideas.

That's hard to say. Personnaly I went into tweaking ezselection2 but the solution is not very stable ... 

The problem is that there is no real solution to handle selection. If your problem is only indexing I would go with a modification of metadata() method of ezselection and make a pull request, but I don't know if that's a BC break or not ...

In fact I would love to know the vision of one eZ Engineer about all the problems around ezselection .... Maybe something is planned for next release :)

At last  I could work ezfind with ezselection2 datatype to map to solr fileds to get the results based ezselection2 datype values.

Thanks a lot Matthieu
