I'm building a site where pages will include a field listing one or more plant species. The problem with plant species is that several different names can refer to the same plant. For example, all the following refer to one plant:
Spinifex sericieus, spinifex, kowhangatara, silvery sand grass
My client wants to avoid having to enter all the aliases for every species on every page and just use a single "master name", but wants a search for "kowhangatara" to return pages that include "Spinifex sericieus".
I'd be grateful for any suggestions on how I could achieve this kind of alias searching in ProcessWire.
