My current issue is around multi-valued fields and determining which entry actually generated the "hit" for a particular query. For example, let's say that I have a multi-valued field containing people's names, associated with the document (trying to be non-specific on purpose). In one document, I have the following names: Jane Smith, Bob Smith, Roger Smith, Jane Doe. If the user performs a search for Bob Smith, this document is returned. What I want to know is that this document was returned because of "Bob Smith", not because of Jane or Roger. I've tried using the highlighting settings. They do provide some help, as the Jane Doe entry doesn't come back highlighted, but both Jane and Roger do. I've tried using hl.requireFieldMatch, but that seems to pertain only to fields, not entries within a multi-valued field. Using Solr, is there a way to get the information I am looking for? Specifically, that "Bob Smith" is the value in the multi-valued field that triggered the hit? -Todd Feak
