Idea: "Accepted results" #15
Comments
I like the idea... basically it'd be training the search what results are more likely to be the correct ones. Implementation I have no idea yet. Seems like a big undertaking for some later time. |
I thought about tracking search terms and chosen results and using the click count to weight those results. Say I twice clicked result Z and once Y, I‘d like to see the results ZYABCD… |
Yes, but it wouldn't be great if it only remembers that for the exact search term, e.g. |
The additional index could look something like this: {
"zeit": {
"url": "texte/zeitsprung",
"count": "5"
},
"reise": {
"url": "texte/...",
"count": "1"
}
}
Couldn't that be done using the same fuzzy search that is searching the main index? Just looking at the previous search terms in this case? It's more about being clever and pretending machine learning ;) |
You mean the same sqlite vodoo that I already don't get (only somehow get it to work)? XD Making it fuzzy (which is so much vodoo itself) bears at least one bigger problem. zeit:
id: 7
count: 1
zeit:
id: 8
count: 3
zei:
id: 7
count: 4
polizei
id: 99
count: 10 If we now start typing a new search, with the term |
Maybe for this feature, fuzziness is not that important at all. It's more about matching words. So if I enter So matching "accepted results" could work like "typed term is start of stored string". |
So if I entered |
To simplify this, whitespace could be ignored. |
Trying to capture some thoughts on this here: Things to consider:

I'd like the idea of it being stored globally because this most likely will improve the result list over time (more users building the same suggestion list). For privacy reasons, it would be great thought, if this feature could be disabled generally in the configuration.
Maybe some ideas:

If it uses SQLite, we can also add to hooks the default to remove entry when the page gets deleted or so at least. |
I'm not sure how to phrase this better than having "accepted results", but I often search for the same terms in the panel. Especially, when I'm dealing with large collections of pages where using the section navigation is cumbersome. In these cases, I have a keyword that I enter again and again, still the result list doesn't adapt to this repetition.
It would be interesting, if this plugin could integrate some kind of "accepted result list" which would be used to prioritize and highlight certain results in the UI. With "accepted results", I refer to previous search results I actually clicked on – like an additional, personalized result index.
I know this feature might raise privacy concerns. But it could be an optional pro feature for the panel only and could use
localStorage
. This feature would certainly not be for everyone, but at least for me personal, an optical clue saying "you already chose this result before"* would be very helpful.* It's a bit like how
