Projects appear in public search results multiple times #758

Open MerielP opened 8 years ago

To reproduce this issue, go to the public project page (e.g. https://dev.ords.ox.ac.uk/ordsFrontEnd/projects.jsp), and search for a string which appears multiple times in the information for one project (on Dev, 'Dave Paine' fits the bill nicely - though without the quotation marks).

The result is that the same project appears several times in the search results, presumably once for each time the string appears (although this doesn't seem to happen absolutely consistently). This is confusing and inaccurate, as the message at the top of the page tells you three projects match your search criteria, when in fact one project matches it three times.

I'd normally expect each item only to appear in the search results once. If this is impractical for any reason, is it at least possible to highlight the search string in the results, to make it a bit clearer what's going on?
