Hi there -
Our facet counts are incorrect for a particular field and I suspect it is
because we changed the type of the field from StrField to TextField. Two
questions:
1. If we do re-index all the documents in the index, would these counts get
fixed?
2. Is there a "safe" way of changing field types that generally works?
*Old type:*
<fieldType name="strings" class="solr.StrField" sortMissingLast="true"
docValues="true" multiValued="true"/>
*New type:*
<fieldType name="lowercase_notokenize" class="solr.TextField"
omitNorms="true" omitTermFreqAndPositions="true" indexed="true"
stored="true" positionIncrementGap="100" sortMissingLast="true"
multiValued="true">
<analyzer>
<tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory"/>
<filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
</analyzer>
</fieldType>
