Hi, I setup my index using standard tokenizer & two filter [ asciifolding & lowercase] I index data with - \_ symbols, eg: abc-xyz, abc\_xyz Then I use query\_string to search: If my query is: - or \_ then nothing found (fine) But if my query is: 045 or 095 (ascii code of 2 above symbols) then my result will abc-xyz or abc\_xyz I think it's look like query\_string had search on store field not in analyzed field isn't it ? What should I do to avoid this problem ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

query\_string uses the same analyzer you used at index time. But if you don't set the field you are querying on, it will use \_all field which could have a different analyzer. Elasticsearch does not search on stored field. That said, I don't fully understand what you are doing here. Could you gist a full curl recreation? -- David 😉 Twitter : @dadoonet / @elasticsearchfr / @scrutmydocs Le 31 mars 2014 à 06:30, kidkid [zkidkid@gmail.com](mailto:zkidkid@gmail.com) a écrit : Hi, I setup my index using standard tokenizer & two filter [asciifolding & lowercase] I index data with - \_ symbols, eg: abc-xyz, abc\_xyz Then I use query\_string to search: If my query is: - or \_ then nothing found (fine) But if my query is: 045 or 095 (ascii code of 2 above symbols) then my result will abc-xyz or abc\_xyz I think it's look like query\_string had search on store field not in analyzed field isn't it ?

Hi David Pilato, It's what I read from Mastering Elasticsearch. I think the problem is Frontend dev have used an custom encode to trip html data.
