Hello, Did you get it to work eventually?
Try setting hl.weightMatches=false and see if that helps. Wether this helps or not, I'd like to have a deeper understanding of the internal structure of the Query (not the original query string). What query parser are you using?. If you pass debug=query to Solr then you'll get a a parsed version of the query that would be helpful to me. ~ David On Mon, May 11, 2020 at 10:46 AM Warren, David [USA] <warren_da...@bah.com> wrote: > I am running Solr 8.4 and am attempting to use its highlighting feature. > It appears to work well when I use the original highlighter or the term > vector highlighter, but when I try to use the unified highlighter, I get no > results returned.
