Solr for Typo3: not searching in dynamic fields

1
votes

I'm using the Typo3 Solr Extension 2.8.3 and added some dynamic fields into the typoscripts definition.

So for example, there is a dynamic field defined for plugin.tx_solr.index.queue.tx_news.author_stringS = author among the other typical definitons.

It seems that the dynamic fields are not put into the index automatically.

Is there a way to tell solr how to index dynamic fields too? - But using the typoscripts config ONLY. I don't like to touch the schema definition.

Did you initialize the index queue after adding your dynamic field? If so, check in your Solr Admin if the field was added and if there is any content in it.

Adding fields without changing the schema definitely works out of the box.

EDIT:

Adding fields to the Solr index doesn't mean that they are used for the search query. You must include your dynamic field also to the query using TypoScript.

See the official documentation:
