Hi All,
I want to search document in following order --\>
1. men's foil shaver
2. men's foils shaver
3. men's foil advanced shaver
I tried multi-field option while mapping the field and mapped it with
different filters and analyzers like one index with "not\_analyzed",one with
"snow ball analyzer", one with "stemmer -- minimul english", "standard",
whitespace" analyzer and one with ngram having min ngram 3 and max nagram
10. None of them works for me.
Major part of the problem is if I search for "men's foil shaver" then all
of them have same score of I CANNOT re-sequence them.
I'm getting:
1. men's foil shaver
2. men's foil advanced shaver
3. men's foils shaver
expected result:
1. men's foil shaver
2. men's foils shaver -- zero word distance with 1 plural "foil --\> foils"
3. men's foil advanced shaver --1 word distance with no plural.
Please suggest. Any help?
I have posted kind of same question[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/elasticsearch/ui9OR7JARs4](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/elasticsearch/ui9OR7JARs4) before
but I did not reach to answer. I'm still waiting on my answers for that.
one more question I have posted before few weeks:
[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/elasticsearch/plural/elasticsearch/ET-S3SCD22I/zFyErGO4SRcJ](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/elasticsearch/plural/elasticsearch/ET-S3SCD22I/zFyErGO4SRcJ)
.
Suggestion did improve my problem but it is not solved yet.
