Hi ! I have a site with 2 languages, accessing them with different siteaccesses, one for ger-DE and one for eng-GB.
The search finds results, no matter to which siteaccess they belong to. Does sb else has this problems too and could it be solved ?
I asked for that time before, but nobody had an answer:http://ez.no/community/forum/setup_design/3_8_multilanguage_search_strange

Hi Heiner
Sorry for not responding to your previous post, it must have slipped through my fingers.
I'm afraid that the functionality you describe is currently not implemented in the default search engine. Let's hope it can be part of eZ 3.10.
Maybe we'll implement it in the Lucene search plugin, but I don't know when...

hi
Yes, this will be implemented in the Lucene search plugin: every language version of an object will be indexed seperately. Template and/or ini settings will control the behaviour: search all languages or only the "default" language of the current siteaccess. target release will be ezp 3.9, maybe backported to 3.7/3.8 ... language handling is somewhat different in these versions ..
Expected implementation date: end of november

Thanks for your answers ! That made it clear. So, as I see, there are two possibilities:
1) Removing information about number of hits and the paging at the bottom or2) Set up a database for the 2cnd language: but that's not a multilanguage website anymore
We are wondering, how other solve that problem, especially enterprise websites, where this bevaviour returns into strange results.
By the way, woudn't it be easy to add this functionality in the 3.8. ? As I see, it could be enough, if the table ezsearch_word or better the ezsearch_object_word_link would have a coloumn "locale". RegardsHeiner
