Hopefully this question makes sense. At the moment I'm using a DisMax query which looks something like the following (massively cut-down):
?defType=dismax &q=some query &qf=field_one^0.5 field_two^1.0 I've got some localisation work coming up where I'd like to use the value of one, sparsely populated field if it exists, falling back to another if it doesn't (rather than duplicating some default value for all territories). Using the standard query parser I understand I can do the following to get this behaviour: ?q=if(exist(field_one),(field_one:some query),(field_three:some query)) However, I don't know how I would go about using DisMax for this type of fallback. Has anyone tried to do this sort of thing before? Is there a way to use functions within the qf parameter?
