Problem with wildcard search in multiple exposed filters

When I search for title=mulahhas and author=jajmini (without wildcard) I get two results.

When I replace the last character of the author with a wildcard (title=mulahhas, author=jajmin*) I get no results.

This is the output from search_api_solr_devel on the page:

    Try to send Solr request => select?omitHeader=true&wt=json&json.nl=flat&q=tm_text_full_title_translit%3A%28mulahhas%29%5E1&start=0&rows=30&fl=ss_search_api_id%2Css_search_api_language%2Cscore%2Chash&sort=score+desc&fq=ss_type%3A%22text%22&fq=tm_person_name_translit_1%3A%22jajmin%2A%22&fq=%2Bindex_id%3Aismi_default_index

            )

    )

    Received Solr response => 200 OK

I see that createFilterQuery() escapes the second field query as a phrase.

When I remove the escapePhrase() in line 2094 I get a result but I don't think this is a real fix...

I've uploaded the view config from the profile as views.view_.ismi_search_entities.yml

The view has multiple displays for slightly different lists and searches.

The example I gave above is from the "search_texts" display (starting at line 1204).

Does that help?

Yes, in the seach_texts display I have two exposed filters using the "full text search" filter with different solr fields.

When I leave the first exposed filter empty then the search expression goes into the q-part instead of the fq-part and the wildcard works.

What the users want is to search in separate fields with separate search terms including wildcards. I can not see how that can be achieved with only one input field.

The user wants to search for a word in the title field and another word in the author field and find all books that match both conditions. I think this is a very common pattern.

That the first field gets to be the "query" and the others to be a "filter" is a detail that the user is not interested in.

Would it be possible to change the logic so that the exposed fields create additional conditions in the q-part of the query instead of a filter query?

Otherwise it may be necessary to apply the query builder logic also to the filter query part to be able to have wildcards.

So search_api is involved as well?

I was wondering where the logic is that puts multiple search fields into one query...

oops, reset priority...

The patch works in my first tests! Thanks a lot!
