Alias for search

Hi there

It would be nice with an interface where we or the client could type in aliases for different searches.

For instance I would like my group of TV's to also be found when I search for "Fjernsyn", "Fladskærm" etc.

The interface could be as simple as a "this value = this value" like:

"Fjernsyn" = TV"
"Fladskærm" = "TV"
"Høretelefoner" = "Headphones"
"Øretelefoner" = "Headphones" etc.

Hi Rune

Yes, sounds like a nice feature. Which search module are you referring to?

Well, we haven't startet using the index search yet - but that one in particular.

But it would be a nice feature regardless of which module i guess. Fits in at the same level as "boosting" (which could also use some love ).

I actually have a similar request from a new project where this would come in handy

It could also be used to handle typical spelling errors like "Apple/Appel"
