Unfortunately I’m a newbie to ruby, rails, and acts_as_ferret. Also,
I’m working in code I mostly didn’t write, so I’m kind of unsure of
things. So this may be a dumb question. It also may be the same issue
as the topic ‘Duplicate search results’, but I’m not sure.
When I update column values with ApplicationController’s
update_attribute, I am getting additional ferret index entries rather
than replacing the old one. As a result, searches get hits when you
search on a historical value that is no longer the value of the field.
I assume that I am somehow misusing acts_as_ferret?
My call to add the mixin to the model class looks like this:
acts_as_ferret :store_class_name => true, :fields => [‘id’, ‘code’,
‘description’]
As a test (and a workaround), in acts_as_ferret.rb module
InstanceMethods, I replaced:
alias :ferret_update :ferret_create
with:
def ferret_update
self.ferret_destroy
self.ferret_create
end
This ensures unique indexes for me. But I’m guessing it’s redundant and
something else is not used or working as intended.
Thanks for reading,
Neil

you should not name the ‘id’ field in the list of fields, it’s always
added to the index automatically. Probably this will solve your problem.
