I don't need to search multiple fields; I need to search just one field but get the corresponding values from another field as well. I.e. if a user is searching for cities, I wouldn't need the countries to also be searched. However, when the list of cities is displayed, I need their corresponding countries to also be displayed. This is obviously possible with the regular Solr index, but I can't figure out how to do it with the Suggester index, which seems to only be able to have one field. Thanks
