We're using phonetic filters (BMPM), and we want to boost exact matches if there are any.
For example, for name "stephen" BM filter will generate two terms: stifn, stipin And for example it'll find for name "stepheM" (misspelled last letter), it'll match on the same two terms. This makes match score of "stephen" same to "stephe*m*" (misspelled) and "stephen" (exact match). We want to boost score for exact matches. What is a good way to do it? A workaround is to duplicate first_name and not to do phonetic filter on that one. But then we would need to change how our application calls (add one field to query ). It would be great if we can boost exact match without adding new fields / changing application query to explicitly specify two fields - exact and phonetic. Thank you, Ruslan
