@mark, @otis:
Can I answer too? :)
yeah copying all the fields to one text field will work but what if
i want
to assign specific weightage to specific fields?
e.g. i have a three fields
1) title
2) tags
3) description
i copied all of them to a new field called "all_text".
now i want to search in all the fields with weightage assigned to
title^4,
tags^2, description^1
how it'll work then?
What you want, then, is the dismax query parser.
&defType=dismax&qf=title^5.0 tags^2.0 description^1.0 kinda thing. It
spreads query terms across multiple fields with field weights
individually controllable.
