Issue - different regional ADs use their local language for location e.g. in Germany the country is listed as Deutschland, Warsaw/Warszawa in Poland etc. We want a user who has "Warszawa" as the city in their SharePoint profile to return when a search is run for "Warsaw".
We have FAST search, but I understand that it doesn't control the people search, this is run by the native SharePoint Search service. I have e following:
- updated the keywords for both search services.
- added the terms to the thesaurus xml files.
- looked at the phoetic function, but this only seems to apply to Nickname/first name/last name.
None of these have had any affect on the People search. So my question is this - how do I achieve the same result in People search as I can is FAST search using synonyms?
Kind Regards
