Hi again! We rolled back to v29.0 since no solution was provided for v30.0.rc3, and tried again — ending up with the same result. However, we noticed something: when using certain fields in

query_by

, the response is incorrect (0 results), but with other fields, it works as expected. Is there a specific field definition required to allow curations in search? For example, when we use this field, we get no results:

{
  "facet": false,
  "index": true,
  "infix": false,
  "locale": "es",
  "name": "title",
  "optional": true,
  "sort": true,
  "stem": true,
  "stem_dictionary": "",
  "store": true,
  "type": "string"
}

But if we use one of these, results are returned:

{
  "facet": false,
  "index": true,
  "infix": false,
  "locale": "es",
  "name": "categories.parent_category.id",
  "optional": true,
  "sort": false,
  "stem": false,
  "stem_dictionary": "",
  "store": true,
  "type": "string[]"
},
{
  "facet": false,
  "index": true,
  "infix": false,
  "locale": "es",
  "name": "categories.description",
  "optional": true,
  "sort": false,
  "stem": false,
  "stem_dictionary": "",
  "store": true,
  "type": "string[]"
},
{
  "facet": false,
  "index": true,
  "infix": false,
  "locale": "es",
  "name": "description",
  "optional": true,
  "sort": false,
  "stem": false,
  "stem_dictionary": "",
  "store": true,
  "type": "string"
}

Is this the expected behavior, or could it be a bug? I couldn’t find anything in the docs explaining which fields can or cannot be used. https://typesense-community.slack.com/archives/C01P749MET0/p1754580388227729

Does it work if stemming is disabled for the “query_by” fields? I think we ran into a similar issue, but didn’t look into it deeply and just turned off stemming as a quick fix.
