Hi, I am currently using the Java API for ES with MongoDB. I use fieldQuery for my main search functionality, where I look for a substring within a particular field. However, I have one particular document whose value of "To To " does not return successfully when I search for it. I had verified that it did exist in the index by searching for it via it's ID. Is this because "To" is a keyword? Here is the code I am using: SearchResponse response = client.prepareSearch("mongoindex") ``` .setSearchType(SearchType.*QUERY_AND_FETCH*) .setQuery(*fieldQuery*(field, "\""+value+"\"")) .setFrom(0).setSize(60).setExplain(*true*) .execute() .actionGet(); ``` -- ---

You are using the default analyzer which remove english stop words, such as "a", "to"... That's the reason.

Hi David, I see! Thanks for the help! If that's the case, how do I change the analyzer to include the default stop words?

I managed to figure it out, thanks to these two very informative links!
