[VuFind-Tech] Filters AND / OR

[Osullivan L. <L.O...@sw...>]

Dear All,

 

Does anyone know if it's possible to specify if the filters use AND or OR in a solr query?

 

I'd basically like to add an option to the advanced search page which allows a user to search for items in a range of language or formats.

 

e.g. Find CDs and DVDs related to Indiana Jones or find books with the Title Magna Carta in English or Latin

 

At present, if you tried a search for Title Magna Carta and selected English and Latin from the Language list, it would only list results where both English and Latin were in the solr language field.

 

Would it be better if I added new types to the search options rather than rely on filters?

 

Kind Reagrds,
