CMS 10.6 Adding Keymatch Searches

Keymatch searches provide a means for searched terms to display at the top of the results lists, regardless of boost value. CMS administrators can promote terms through the Keymatch UI.

To add a keymatch search:

Navigate to Administration > InSite Search > Keymatch.
Select Add in the Custom Keymatch tab.
A row entry displays where you will configure the keymatch.
In the Search Term field, provide a term for your keymatch query.

In the Match Type drop-down list, select one of the following options.

Option	Description
Keyword match	Choose this option when you provide a Search Term field value that must appear anywhere in query. For example, let's use the terms "Abraham" and "Lincoln", where the entries for each term are configured separately. To get a keyword match for either "Abraham" or "Lincoln," then enter two keyword matches: one for "Abraham" and one for "Lincoln." Note If your keyword match is "Abraham Lincoln", the search query must include both "Abraham" and "Lincoln" to trigger this keyword match.
Phrase Match	Choose this option when you provide a Search Term field value that appears anywhere in the query. For the phrase to match, all the words must be present, the order of words must be the same with no intervening words, and any hyphens in the query must be matched. For example, let's use the terms Abraham Lincoln," "President Abraham Lincoln," "Abraham Lincoln president," and "young Abraham Lincoln". These are all phrase keymatches because the words appear in the order entered in the search query, "Abraham Lincoln." In contrast, "Abraham the Tall Lincoln" is not a phrase match because "the Tall" separates the phrase "Abraham Lincoln."
Exact Match	Choose this option when you provide a Search Term field value that must exactly match the query. For example, let's use "Abraham Lincoln". Only "Abraham Lincoln" is an exact match for the query. In contrast, "President Abraham Lincoln" and "Abraham Lincoln's" are not exact matches.
