#066: Faceted Search


Listen Later

Module Link: http://drupal.org/project/faceted_search The faceted search module allows you to break up your default Drupal search into Facets (smaller pieces). These facets can then break down by content type, taxonomy, date and many other facets. Who: Advanced users When: Use this module when you have a ton of content in your site which makes it hard to find what people are searching for and you can't use Lucene API or Apache Solr. Where: You can add environments and change settings at /admin/settings/faceted_search Why: Larger sites almost require some form of faceting. When the search for ""Rodney Dangerfield"" returns 5k nodes you need to provide a better way to search for your users so they can find the content they need without going through page after page.   Theme song "i dunno" by grapes. module-a-day_podcast-0066.mp3
