can we use cross\_fields mode in simple\_query\_string ?  
I just read this topic about stopword analyzer in simple\_query\_string :

> Plugins installed: nothing besides the default ones...

  
This topic give me two perfect solutions:
- one is using cross\_field mode with multi\_match
- two is disable whitespace split characters.  
In this topic, @jimczi mention about cross\_field mode. So i wonder if we can use cross\_field mode in simple\_query\_string ?  
Thank you in advance
