By and large, yes, though the default="NOW" probably does not make sense. Also: * One typically one wants search fields to be analysed, so type="text" might be better * Depending on the application, one might, or might not, want stored="true". This would depend on whether one wants just to search in the field, or also to retrieve data (e.g., for display on a web front-end). A good starting point might be: * The Solr tutorial: http://lucene.apache.org/solr/tutorial.html * The Solr Wiki: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrResources The Solr book is also quite useful, at least when getting started.
