I have an index which (among others) contains the following fields: - title - authors - suggest
I'm copying the *title* and the *authors* fields into *suggest* with copy_to. Now I've noticed that I do not get suggestions when I type in the last name of an author - which makes sense because the completion suggester is a prefix suggester. However, I'd like to extend it to also work with last names in this example. As I see it, there are two options: 1. Index *Stephenie Meyer* as both *Stephenie Meyer* and just *Meyer* in the *suggest* field. 2. Not use a suggester but instead use a search for completion, as described here <http://blog.qbox.io/multi-field-partial-word-autocomplete-in-elasticsearch-using-ngrams> . It seems to me that the first option is preferable since it makes use of FSTs and is therefore much faster. However, how can I make Elasticsearch copy the *title* and *authors* field into *suggest* accordingly? Or is this only possible by manually creating the suggest field myself (instead of using an Elasticsearch feature like copy_to)? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
