Re: best query for one-box search string over multiple types fields?

Johnny What you are going to want to do is boost the artist field with respect to the others, for example using edismax my 'qf' parameter is: number^5 title^3 default so hits in the number field get a five-fold boost and hits in the title field get a three-fold boost. In your case
