hi,  
i have mapped multi field for an index like this  
{  
"tweet" : {  
"properties" : {  
"name" : {  
"type" : "multi\_field",  
"fields" : {  
"name" : {"type" : "string", "index" :  
"analyzed"},  
"untouched" : {"type" : "string", "index" :  
"not\_analyzed"}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}

and indexing data's to this index. i want add one more field as  
multifield. i added using ignore conflicts. the field also added. but  
when i search the records with that specfic fields no data found.  
error raised. the error is no mapping found for that specfic field.

Note: if i add as single field after indexing. its working.
