May be it wasn't clear in my response, sorry! You can use a different field for searching (qf parameter for dismax) than the one for highlighting (hl.fl) : q="a phrase query"&qf="text_without_termFreqs"&hl=on&hl.fl="text_with_termFreqs".
Scoring will be based on fq's fields only (i.e. those without termFreqs). Highlighting will be base on hl.fl's fields only (i.e. those with termFreqs, as required by fast vector highlighter) Is it any clearer ? :-) Best regards, Tanguy -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/termFrequncy-off-and-still-use-fastvector-highlighter-tp3998590p3999544.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
