Hi My question is re fuzzy query. I have indexed products and searching on the title field. As i want to accommodate for typos, I am doing a fuzzy search with edit\_distance 1. The issue is that for a query "shirt" , products matched are with one having "shirt" and "short" in title (due to fuzziness) Altho I am able to boost shirt over short in resultset, but nonetheless shorts are still coming down in results which makes it look weird for the end user. How can i make sure that if exact matches are found then fuzzy ones are not returned? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Is there somequery type where I can write 'n' queries (in array...a chain) so that ES executes them seqeuntially and there is a break condition in every query to not execute any further query in chain if the break condition is met? Will be immensely useful if this feature can be provided! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

You could index the data twice Once analysed. Once not analysed. Then query not analysed. And if results then display those. Otherwise query the analysed and display those. ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
