Hi. Lets say I query my website with "interesting question" term. I want to match occurrences _preferably_ with both words, and add to the results less important entries with 1 to N-1 passed words in the term. Is there a way to perform one single search to achieve that? Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
