Lasitha, I think I understand what you are asking and if you have something like Doc1 = software engineering Doc2 = Software engineer
And if you query q=software+engineer -> Doc1 & Doc2 but q="software+engineer" -> Doc1 Correct? If this is correct then to my knowledge no, Solr out of the box cannot do what you are asking, that is recognize a exact (quoted) search and change the query fields to non-ngram fields. Of course you could do this in code with some regex to see if the first and last character are double quotes but there are a number of draw backs to this like q= "Software Engineer" and Ninja wont do what you want it to but you could always do something else. >From my experience I would still want q="software+engineer" -> Doc1 and Doc2 cause technically that exact phrase does exists in both Docs. Maybe there is someone else on here who can offer some more perspective on this or a possible query analyzer that I haven't heard of that can solve this issue (I would also be interested in that).
