Don't use tags as keywords

  by Achim Koch

Overview

AEM Assets supports multiple ways to search for assets, e.g.

 

  • Full text search and
  • Filter by tags

to name just two. Unfortunately, tag references are also found as keywords in the full text search, which could lead users to believe that tags can be used in Omnisearch. This works only for tags that use the ASCII alphabet and only until you merge or move tags.

This blog post explains why this happens. I cannot offer a solution - but I thought it might be good to share to raise awareness.

Good one @-ash . Your examples make sense, will definitely mind it when implementing search components.
