This extension has not been updated in over 2 years. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues.
 You don't need to install this plugin on DokuWiki 2011-04 “Rincewind”. As of Rincewind, all searching problems with Asian languages seem solved. If you have already installed this plugin, you are safe to uninstall it. |

Overview
DokuWiki has a full-text search function which now also supports Asian languages. However, searching Asian language texts still has some problems.
The problems are that:
- DokuWiki 2009-02-14
- Search result highlightings are a bit too fragmented
- An ideographic space (U+3000) in a search query is treated not as a search term separator, but as a character itself
- DokuWiki 2010-11-07 “Anteater”
- No search result snippet appears when searched with Asian words
This plugin solves these problems.
Configuration
