  • The Knowledge Base and global text searches can provide "Did you mean?" suggestions. Suggestions appear if a search doesn't return any results and an alternate spelling or similar recent search does. This feature is disabled by default.

    Before you begin

    Role required: admin

    About this task

    Set system properties to enable "Did you mean?" suggestions in the Knowledge Base and legacy global search tools.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > System Properties > Text Search.
    2. Select any of the following check boxes:
      • Suggest alternate search spellings for knowledge or global search (the glide.ts.dym.enable_spell_correct property).
      • Suggest related searches for knowledge or global search (the glide.ts.dym.enable_chain_suggest property); uses search chains, which generate suggestions by tracking occurrences of similar searches, in order, over time.
      Note:
      The global search references in these check boxes only apply to the legacy global search functionality. They don't apply to the global search functionality introduced in the New York release, because the "Did you mean?" functionality isn't available.
    3. Select Save.
