Hi,
Im unable to get facets as I expected.
We store products on ES, products got tags like 'body', 'sneakers', 't-shirt', ext..
When i get term facets on the "tag" field, "t-shirt" tag separated into two terms because of '-' character.
How do i disable these separators?
I tried to set different analyzers but couldnt accomplish.
We are using ES 0.19.3
Thanks.

set the mapping for the field to not\_analyzed, something like:
```
"foo-field" : { "type" : "string", "index" :
```
"not\_analyzed", "store" : "yes", "include\_in\_all" : true},
If you need both analyzed and not analyzed versions, see the multi\_field
option.

Note that store set to yes is not really needed.

Thanks guys, i set that field as "not\_analyzed" and facet results are based
on actual field values.
Now i got more questions 🙂
- Does that "not\_analyzed" thing affect search results ?
- My documents are quite small (~10 fields and small values) and i need
most of the fields loaded on search results. Do i need to set
{"store":"yes"} for better performance?
Thanks.

No, you don't need store to be set to yes for better performance, since it
plays no part when searching, only when loading a relevant hit to be
returned to the user (and if a field is not explicitly stored, it will be
fetched from \_source).
