Hello
I am using multi match in several fields and when I try to search with keyword, ES applies higher score to which has more matching words.
IE, If I try to search with `valentine` and Document A has `valentine XXX valentine` and Document B has `valentine XXXXXXXX`, Document A has higher score than B.
I want to apply same score to them if they have valentine regardless of counts.
This must be done in multi\_search because I have to search it in several fields.
About analyzer, I am using customized one and it is below
filter : "owercase, asciifolding"
tokenizer : "letter"
Hope to hear suggestions from elastic experts 😃
Thanks.
