What i would like is the search to work exactly like before only that it defaults to AND instead of OR.
Almost every search engine i have tried, google etc. works like this.
"black horse cat dog" only show results with all words present.
This is what i did, set global ft_boolean_syntax = ' +-><()~*:""&|'
I really appreciate your help!!

There is. See ft_boolean_syntax variable - it defines what characters is used for each operator. In particular it defines '+' for "must be present" and a space ' ' for "optionally present" words.
You want to put the space first (for "must be present" words)
