## Known issues
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All column and table names must be double-quoted. PostgreSQL automatically
|
|
|
|
|
lower-cases columns, and your queries will fail if you don't.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ts_vector columns are not automatically detected by the built-in search
|
|
|
|
|
filters. That means if you're doing a search through the CMS on a ModelAdmin
|
|
|
|
|
object, it will use LIKE queries which are very slow. If you're writing your
|
|
|
|
|
own front-end search system, you can specify the columns to use for search
|
|
|
|
|
purposes, and you get the full benefits of T-Search.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are using unsupported modules, there may be instances of MySQL-specific
|
|
|
|
|
SQL queries which will need to be made database-agnostic where possible.
