Is there a way to blacklist certain terms from triggering these suggestions


Issue: GSA is providing "Did you mean" suggestions that I would like to disable. For instance, a search for "void cheque" is returning "avoid cheque". In the banking domain, this would been seen as a somewhat silly suggestion. :)

I cannot find anything in the documentation that suggests this is possible, so I am asking the group here...

Is there a way to blacklist certain terms from triggering these suggestions?


Solution

  • Under the "Query Expansion Policy", if you use "Local" or "Full" query expansion, you can also use a blacklist to block expansion of specified terms.

    Search > Search Features > Query Settings
