One can achieve this via single quotes or regexp query syntax:

   title:'ski'
   title:/ski/

If you would like to make it a new default search matching method, this
is not currently configurable out of the box, but it is very easy to
change.

However, please note that switching default mode to substring matching
would be extremely expensive CPU time wise, since this is done currently
during runtime via full table scans.

If you still would like to have this, please submit a new feature
request at:
