Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: OpenFTS as searching on partial words

Ouch, reading this thread again. No, it seems that partial words searching works only in the traditional way, i.e. select * from yourtablename where title ~* 'play';

Lars, you may want to checkout http://openfts.sourceforge.net/tsearch/README.tsearch
for all features supported by tsearch (and thus openfts).

It seems like you are the person whom I need to talk to since you have been involved with the search package development.  I am having some problems with the search package.  I am pretty sure I have installed OpenFTS and Search correctly.  Now I want to be able to search, or do a wide search on my site.  The major question I have is do I make an object searchable?  I have read a few series of documentations but they did not provide me with too much help.  I'd rather have a step-by-step process (similar to the OpenACS setup) to guide me through setting my objects and making them searchable.
