Steps to reproduce:
- Visit this website https://www.wnj.com/
- Click on search icon at the top right corner
- Type in search string that contains “&” in it (ex.: Test & Lorem Ipsum)
- Look at the URL and/or query that actually had been searched
I have tried to use this
and also this
both had been unsuccessful.
How do I make sure Algolia knows that “&” is part of the query and not delimiter?
Do I need to preprocess my string and transform “&” to “%26”? It seems like Algolia should be able to handle such simple task on its own without my involvement or the “Separator Characters to index” should take care of that? Unless I am misunderstanding the point of “separatorsToIndex” and the example provided (separatorsToIndex API parameter | Algolia).
