Hi Shawn, I think the position is the issue, but how do I fix it? Is something wrong with my index analyzer or just my query is not right? I need to do phrase query, order is important here.
I tried “KKS KSA”~1 in the query, it worked. However, if I do "KKS KSA SAR”~1, it didn’t work, I had to do "KKS KSA SAR”~2. Is phrase slop essential here. I used to with Solr 3.5, no phrase slop is needed.
