Does anyone have a great tutorial for learning the solr query language, dismax and edismax? I've searched endlessly for one but I haven't been able to locate one that is comprehensive enough and has a lot of examples (that actually work!). I also tried to use wildcards, logical operators, and a phrase search and it either didn't work or behave the way I thought it would.
for example, I tried to search a multivalued field solr.title and a content field that contains their phone number (and a lot of other data) so, from the solr admin query page; in the q field i tried lots of variations of this-> solr.title:*Costa, Julie* AND content:tel= And I either got 0 results or ALL the results. solr.title would only work if I put in solr.title:*Costa* but not anything longer than that. Even though there are plenty of Costa, J's (John, Julie, Julia, Jerry etc) I should be able to do a phrase search out of the box, shouldn't I? I also read on one site that only edismax can use logical operators but I couldn't get that to work either. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm currently using Solr 4.0 Final with ManifoldCF v 1.2 dev Thank you, -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Tutorial-for-Solr-query-language-dismax-and-edismax-tp4033465.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
