Hi, I am experiencing an unexpected result with highlighting when using an \_analyzer path in the mapping and custom analyzers. The highlighting returns no result for some query terms, even though the term matches and the document is returned. For other query terms it works fine. Somehow it seems that for querying and highlighting a different analyzer is used. See the following commands to reproduce the issue: > I am using ES v1.3.4 Thanks for any hint.

I remember there was a github issue about path specified analyzers and highlighting but I can't find it. Reading it may be your best bet.
