Hi ! I'd like to make ES to find only docs matching all query words, but not necessarily in the same order, so match\_phrase is not what i'm looking for. Is there a query option doing that, or should i use minimum\_should\_match to 100% ?

Hi, I think a simple match query with operator AND should do what you want!

Hi David, I finally got what I wanted with this query : $es\_query = array( 'match' =\> array( '\_all' =\> array( 'query' =\> 'word1 word2 word3', 'minimum\_should\_match' =\> '100%' ) ) ); But maybe this not the best way to do it. How do you do that with AND operator ? I didn't find an example in the documentation. Thanks for your help, maybe my problem is stupid but i'm very new to ES.
