Hi,
is it possible (is there any hook, an extension or a php-hack) to modify the search
engine
in such a way that the search term "example" would find "example" as
well as "ex*ample"?
Can you be more specific about what you need? Is there a specific
logic to where the wildcard should be inserted?
The general case (finding "example", "*example",
"e*xample",
"ex*ample", "exa*mple", etc.) would likely be quite expensive.
