Yes, the last post on the forum was made 2 days ago. I just created a new post and vuala - it works and also the template is brand new. Looks like the the post statistics somehow was reset after upgrade, this is why it didn't pick up the topics created earlier this week. Thanks for explanation!
[Nodebb-plugin-elasticsearch] plugin for Elasticsearch search, Chinese supported
-
here's the repository Nodebb-plugin-elasticsearch
Since the current nodebb search engine seems not to support Chinese-text search, I choose the elasticsearch as the content, post and topic, search engine.
I found nodebb-plugin-search-elasticsearch but the original author doesn't maintain it anymore. I made few modification of it.Before doing searching, remember to start elasticsearch and import your data from the original Nodebb-supported database, mongodb/redis ,to elaseticsearch to build index by any plugin you use. (I am using mongo-connector.)

Have you tried contacting the original author? Perhaps he will give you npm ownership of the package name so you can publish to it...
-
@julian I did try contact him and also sent a merge request to him weeks ago but he did not respond to me yet.
-
Oh, I see -- looks like you actually snagged the better name, nodebb-plugin-elasticsearch
Awesome work!

@julian
Even though elasticsearch works, I still wonder why NodeBB doesn't support Chinese text search ? In order to build env for EasticSearch in AWS, the cost of hardware increases rapidly. Now I am seeking an alternative method. -
@Kinchtwck Full text search is easiest with Latin characters only. Adding Unicode is good but gets much more complicated... I do believe Solr supports Chinese characters and can be installed on the same server as the forum...?
