Dear all,

I have a simple query mentioned below :

select  count(*)  from page_content where (content like '%Militant%' 

OR content like '%jihad%' OR  content like '%Mujahid%'  OR 

 content like '%fedayeen%' OR content like '%insurgent%'  OR content
like '%terrORist%' OR 

  content like '%cadre%'  OR content like '%civilians%' OR content like
'%police%' OR content like '%defence%' OR content like '%cops%' OR
content like '%crpf%' OR content like '%dsf%' OR content like '%ssb%')
AND (content like '%kill%' OR content like '%injure%');

I need to convert it into other format that use tsvector & tsquery
for Full-Text Searching.

I try and convert it like :

SELECT count(*)  from page_content WHERE publishing_date like '%2010%'
and

content_language='en' and content is not null and isprocessable = 1 and

to_tsvector('english',content) @@ to_tsquery('english','Mujahid' || ' |
'

|| 'jihad' || ' | ' || 'Militant' || ' | ' || 'fedayeen' || ' | ' ||
'insurgent' || ' | ' || 'terrORist' || ' | ' || 'cadre'

 || ' | ' || 'civilians' || ' | ' || 'police' || ' | ' || 'cops' || ' |
' || 'crpf' || ' | ' || 'defence' || ' | ' || 'dsf' || ' | ' || 'ssb') ;

But not able to convert and use the condition

AND condition (  AND (content like '%kill%' OR
content like '%injure%')  )  also.

Please help me , how to add this to the query.

Thanks & best Regards,
