Description

Even if advanced search queries are documented in CKAN (#227), casual users will be hard pressed to remember Solr query syntax.

A lot of work has already been done by @TkTech on this

https://github.com/ckan/ckanext-scheming/issues/178

Most especially once scheming is merged into core cc @wardi
