Hi all, I'm just making sure my thinking around this is correct. When you use the "query\_string" query WITHOUT the "analyzer" parameter set while running it against multiple fields does each query against each of the fields use that fields default search analyzer? Or do they all use one search analyzer set somehow? Does this change when using dis\_max vs bool?

It will use each field default search analyzer. It applies to both dis\_max and bool.

Hello, if it is the case why I got differents results by querying: - toto - myterm:toto See my example here: [https://groups.google.com/d/msg/elasticsearch/wahlrLlxVwQ/ulir17TfmAYJ](https://groups.google.com/d/msg/elasticsearch/wahlrLlxVwQ/ulir17TfmAYJ) Many thanks, -- Johnny On Thursday, February 28, 2013 5:16:58 PM UTC+1, kimchy wrote: > It will use each field default search analyzer.
