Hi Guys,

I was wondering, whether the keyword matching algorithm for FAQ suggestions uses a stemmer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stemming) or just literal matching.
In other words, are "update" and "updated" reduced to the same stemmed/root form?

Thanks,

    Yes, they are indeed stemmed. We use sphinx, along with a match-all algorithm to find articles.
