Hello. While trying to understand why phrase match and boost was not working with shingles and the dismax parser, I saw this thread - http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Local-Params-syntax-not-protecting-Shingles-in-DisMax-from-Lucene-query-parser-td1563090.html
It states "I really like the DisMax query parser, but of course its main design is a bit at odds with shingles and phrases." What are these issues? I thought that I'd use shingles in conjunction with higher "pf" boost and dismax to get better phrase matches, but its just not working - the shingle field is almost never seen to match, and I have no idea why! thanks, vijay -- Performance marketing on Twitter - http://www.wisdomtap.com/
