Hi guys. In a dynamic template, I've got a multi\_field field with 2 fields:  
"{name}", and "analyzed". The "analyzed" field is configured to be included  
in \_all . However, after indexing a document the "analyzed" field is  
configured to not be included in \_all .

I've written up a quick gist with the curl commands here:

Any idea what's going on?

Thanks,  
Nick

In multi field mapping, only the "main" filed can be included in all (or not), the others are really not relevant (since its the same text that gets added to all). Note, the \_all field has its own analyzer.

Ah, that'd explain it! Thanks for that.
