Hi there, I have some a field "domain" and a filtered alias on that field. The problem is i have the field "domain" with default settings, which means "analyzed". I have "domain" values like "[test.com](http://test.com)" and "[test-book.com](http://test-book.com)" . My alias search with with /test.com/\_search works fine, but all values with a hyphen do not work. I set the "domain" field "not\_analyzed" and it worked with that. Can i now set all the indexed documents with the "not\_analyzed" mapping, cause i think it will only work for the new inserted documents. How can i fix that and make all the inserted fields from analyzed to not\_analyzed? regards Andi ---

When you change a mapping for an existing field, you have to reindex your data. This [blog post](https://www.elastic.co/blog/changing-mapping-with-zero-downtime) outlines how to do this with zero downtime. ---
