Work with stopwords
Stopwords are the common words in language that are ignored when included within a search query. Configured Commerce has a default set of stopwords already included, but it may be useful to add additional subjective terms from being included in search query processing. For example, words such as "quality", "cheap", "value", and so on could be added so that if a user enters a query of "cheap bolts", search will only process the word "bolts."
The following is the default list of stopwords:
they, this, to, was, will, with
that, the, their, then, there, these,
no, not, of, on, or, such,
for, if, in, into, is, it,
a, an, and, are, as, at, be, but, by,
Stopwords are not case sensitive.
Note
The stop token filter that removes the stop words from a token stream does not apply to the Product Number or the Manufacturer Item. The Product Number and Manufacturer Item fields are intended as single term, and stop word removal is intended for multi-word streams.
