ElasticSearch Essentials

ElasticSearch Essentials [Paid] 3.17.12

No permission to buy ($30.00)
Elasticsearch does have "synonyms" support, but none of my stuff or XFES interacts with that support
 
Is this a XF ACP info display or part of this addon? I had to do a full site restore and it's gone. I have uninstalled both this addon and XFES but it has not returned.

Yes, the "elasticsearch information" block is part of this add-on. If it isn't showing check that elasticsearch is setup properly by visiting "AdminCP => Setup => Enhanced search"
 
You might have an add-on which is causing the template modification to fail.

Make sure src/addons/SV/ElasticSearchEssentials/_output does not exist (ie delete it), and if you deleted it; then do an add-on rebuild.
Thanks again @Xon . I have the same addons before my server rebuild. I did not have _output but did a rebuild anyway. Did not help. I then did an uninstall / reinstall and wala! Thanks again!

This is the first time I've ever been on a server that allows elastic search install. First thing I did was purchase this add-on. :)

Is there anything I should know, or settings I should optimize? I already rebuilt the search index.

Also, I don't know if this is a XenBase problem or an add-on problem, but the search auto complete does not work on XenBase when the search bar text box is visible by default.

That is basically it. Exact text search - body and Exact text search - title are enabled by default which allows quoting with "" to match exact text and improves accuracy.

You'll want to make sure stemming is enabled so you can get exact and fuzzy text matching instead of exact and kinda near exact matching.

Can you check that all the template modifications are applying? It is possible it is a javascript compatibility issue as well.

It works fine when the search menu has to be opened. But not when the textbox is visible by default.

Another thing I noticed is that the placement of the similar threads block is inconsistent. It'll show right below the thread title on the quick thread form in the thread list, which is good.

But on the post thread page, It'll show below the thread type tabs. I think it would look better right under the thread title like above.
