Thank you Shalin, I'm in the process of implementing your suggestion,
and it works marvelously. Had to upgrade to solr 1.3, and had to hack
up acts_as_solr to function correctly.
Is there a way to receive a search for a given field, and have solr
know to automatically check the two fields? I suppose not.
I'm trying to avoid having to manipulate user input too much, so
hoping to be able to have a user search for:
title:phpGroupWare
and have it search the two fields automatically. Right now, in
implementing your solution, I take their title search and convert it
to (titlew:(phpGroupWare) OR titlec:(phpGroupWare)) and it works
marvelously, but of course would be easier if I could just let it go
as is.
(titlew being wdf_wordparts and titlec being wdf_catenatewords)
Thank you kindly, we've grown to depend strongly on solr for OSVDB.org
and datalossdb.org -- it is a fantastic tool.
