Hi Seb. et al.,

 

I have a similar problem with the creators_id – we don’t use emails in that field; instead we use a locally assigned identifier containing alpha characters and hyphens (e.g., Coles-B).  I’d like for the creators_id to be indexed/searched as an exact string match in the advanced search.  I tried changing the type to “id” and rebuilding the index, but now I get no hits at all. 

 

Can you help?
