# StopWordIndex

The `StopWordIndex` configuration parameter defines how to handle stop words during indexing. It has the following options:

Option | Description
--- | ---
0 | Do not index stop words.
1 | Index stop words.
2 | Index stop words, but prevent the Content component from expanding wildcard values to stop words.

In queries, Content matches stop words only in a phrase.

`alfred the bear`. Content ignores the stop word the.

`"alfred the bear"`. Content includes the stop word the in the phrase query.

`copy of "alfred the bear"`. Content ignores the stop word of, but it includes the in the phrase query.

NOTE: If you change this setting after you have indexed content into Content, you must re-index the content.
