Paul,
Do you have an example of how to enable this in the solr config on the
default request handler? Is it as simple as adding
edismax
text^0.5 features^1.0 name^1.2 sku^1.5 id^10.0 manu^1.1 cat^1.4
to the requestHandler named search?

Ah, yes very helpful thanks Paul. I knew there would be something that I
broke :). I will need to go back and consider the use cases and see which
will and will not require exact matches. Thanks again!
I have never heard of DisMax so this is new to me as well but have found
some posts about it
Jamie,
the problem with that is that you cannot do exact matching anymore.
For this reason, it is good style to have two fields, to use a query expander
such as dismax (prefer exact matches, and less phonetic matches), and to only
use that when you sort by score.
hope it helps
paul
